when/if we port it, then it will be available to you. Naturally, we need
 to wait until near July to begin the port...Legato will not make the code
 available to their OEM's until then, and then we get to sort out all those
 32/64 bit -isms, and adding in all the DEC device and Trucluster capabilities
 you all know and love, and testing the living daylights out of the new 
 code base, etc, etc, etc.

what feature(s) are you anxious for??

	As always if you need an estimated date you must contact
	product management.  It can not be provided in a notes
	conference.

I didn't understand this comment.  Would you mind elaborating?

Also, what, if any, features of Legato's NetWorker 5.0 are you (or
your customer) interested in getting?  We always need this kind
of information to make decisions/tradeoffs.

Product futures are not normally discussed in an open notes 
conference.  We are working on our plans for V5.0.  I'll contact 
you offline.

However, if you have customer feedback on product requirements, 
either post them here, email me ([email protected]) or the product 
manager, Craig Huber ([email protected]).
