Well.. the story is, 2.0.2 is the latest and greatest if you apply
all the patches... 

2.2 is on the way.. should be just a couple of months...  it's suppose to 
have C2 security and other "stuff".

also a new tcp should be out in a month or so... to fix all of the current
problems...

and then, ultimatly,  sometime late this year, will be a completly seperate
product based on System 5 Release 4.  This is not going to outdate 2.2 or
2.0.2 but will be a seperate product all together.

all of this information is my translation of talking to ISC hollis.
and all of this information is from our sales rep.  and you all know
how to tell if a sales rep is lying... his lips move..!!  (just kidding) :-)
