MIMER is a relational DBS which is hardware independent and OS independent. Current implementations run under VAX/VMS and other related OS. In short a version for UNIX System V and BSD 4.x will be available. The RDBS was developed at the University of Upsala (Sweden ?). I am interested in the following questions: - Who has used it and what OS was it used under ? - What was your experience using it (ease of use, userfriendlyness.....) ? - If you have not used it - have you heard of it and in what context? - Have you considered it but turned it down? I am conducting this survey because I am evaluating the MIMER RDBS and would like to have some input from other sources. Please send any responses to me by mail. Thanks for taking your time andy asfour UUCP: ....!cernvax!asfour
