Regarding RTI's Ingres product:

I would like to clarify my earlier posting, it has been pointed out to me
I made a false statement when I wrote (regarding RTI's tech support 
group):

>  This is what 
>  results from support organizations which are completely separate from the
>  product engineering teams.                   ^^^^^^^^^^

	With the wonders of the US telephone system and the tremendous 
advances made in Networking technology, its hard to be "COMPLETELY SEPARATE"
from anything, so what I should have written was:

	This is what results from support organizations which are separate
from the product engineering teams.

Thanks to diligent Net-readers for pointing out my error.

Also of interest to those who have been following the issue of protection
of user objects, I heard that the "FRONT END" system catalogs will be properly
protected in the next major release of ingres (Thats version 6.0, likely to be
out some time next calendar year)
