the info i got from/at interactive at CeBIT faire in Hannover last week:

- they had release 4 version 3 running there with Open Look and everything.
- an upgrade from 2.2.* will cost $200 and will be available around april,
  *BUT* that's *NOT* for customers, but for developers/resellers for
  testing/porting/getting-used-to/etc.
- the bug fix is now shipping in europe.
- there'll be a developers conference in L.A this summer.

btw, Douglas Miller, Director European Operations of ISC, was one
of the friendliest and most helpful people i met at CeBIT,
and i met a *lot* of people...

of course i'm into requesting said update these days :-)
