ids10 for unixware
A poster asked whether IBM planned to port IDS 10 to SCO UnixWare, needing an upgrade path for a sizeable user base. Replies were uniformly pessimistic: IBM had apparently dropped UnixWare from its platform plans (an IIUG Insider item was cited), widely attributed to SCO's Linux litigation, and others doubted anyone would still invest in SCO. One suggestion was that the Linux build might possibly run, but it would be unsupported; another advised raising a business case with an IBM account manager. No definitive roadmap or resolution was given.

The story seem to have gone from the IBM web site but see http://www.iiug.org/news/insider/insider_17oct03.html#10 I think SCO had upset IBM with its litigation over Linux. Someone else might be able to advise you about whether it's possible to run the Linux release on SCO. Even if it is though, it would not be a supported environment. Ben.

to update a rather significant number of users.
if there is a business case to port the product to IDS 10 then discuss this with your IBM account manager
