Hi Doug,

I can't confirm "mid-February", but things look excellent for our
initial target of Q1 CY2003, especially now that we've gotten

JAXB will have an entirely different license than what shipped
with the beta release. I have not seen it yet, but I expect it
to be very similar to the other JAX* licenses.

Hope that helps...
