The current plan for MII 12.1 is to enter ramp-up in Q4 2008. However, we expect that we will enter ramp-up on only 1-2 platforms, and then release additional platforms every month during ramp-up.
SO - the question is, which operating systems do we pick first? If you are serious about entering the ramp-up program for 12.1, please let me know what OS and DB combination you would be looking to implement. We will attempt to prioritize the platforms based on customers entering ramp-up. By the end of ramp-up, all platforms will be released.
Feel free to ask additional questions, I would be happy to answer them.
