It's called Statice, and is a product of Symbolics, Inc. Its main drawback is that it currently is only available for Symbolics computers. That's interesting. How does one build multiuser systems out of Symbolics computers? >Did someone give you the impression that proposed OODBMS systems do >not provide shared access to persistent data? Rather that no one gave me the impression that they did. Do they? Would someone out there describe his production OODB and state how many concurrent users access it? How many are actively updating it on a typical day? -- Jon -- Jonathan Krueger jkrueger@dgis.daitc.mil uunet!dgis!jkrueger Isn't it interesting that the first thing you do with your color bitmapped window system on a network is emulate an ASR33?
