Thanks to everyone that has participated in this thread!
I also received some private replies from a few people. They were quite
happy with the v5.1 release.
Most everyone related their experience, and all are helpful. Thanks!
However, there's one area of concern that wasn't addressed (in the
posts
I've seen): What is the maintenance model for v5.1? Obviously v5.0
will
have quarterly maintenance packs ... Veritas, in fact, just released
MP3.
How will the v5.1 release maintenance be handled? Will we have v5.1MPn
someday, or some other way to get fixes and fresh bugs to us? Or is
v5.1 a dead end release? It seems to me that v5.1 had a base code of
approximately v5.0MP1, so I expected maintenance for v5.1 to appear
with
or close to v5.0MP2 and then now at v5.0MP3. But no maintenance to the
v5.1 release has surfaced.
If this is published information, could someone point me in the right
direction, please?
If not, and and Dilbert is reading this mailing list, please get your
boss to tell us the story. ;-)
cheers, wayne
