Let's say that in two years RDp becomes something else like RDx, would a 3-year SWMA contract over RDp apply to the hypothetical RDx?

3-year is the deal, and I'm definitely leaning toward it, but want to make sure it upscales before I go to my manager asking for a 3-year contract.

Based on the way things went with WDSC, I'd say a 3 year SWMA on RDP
will get us 3 years of maintenance on RDP but not any hypothetical
follow-on product.

The difference is that WDSC was a no-charge item, while RDP is
chargeable. It is speculation whether Rational will give us
entitlements (or not) to any hypothetical successor to RDP. But I'm
guessing that my SWMA will not transfer to a successor IDE.
