    I was wondering if anyone could help with information regarding
    the ORACLE version upgrade policy, both for customers on a
    service maintenance contract and customers without such a contract?

    Specifically,

    1) Are upgrades free if a customer is on a contract, and if they
       are not what is the cost of the upgrade?

    2) If a customer is not on a contract, is there a cost for an 
       version upgrade, and how much is that cost?

    I am also looking for similar information on ASK/Ingres, Informix,
    and Sybase.

    If it were possible to ask these questions of customers that have 
    recently upgraded I would be indebted.

    	Thanks,
    	Chuck
