IBM sees Cloudscape as a lower end database that will encourage people
to migrate to DB2. By giving it away, they get a tax deduction,
generate good will, don't have to maintain the code, and gain more
users who may upgrade to DB2 in the future.
If WebObjects was released as open source the current development tools
would probably be ported to Windows and Linux which would move people
away from Apple's hardware.

With IBM giving Cloudscape to the community it would be great if Apple
did that with WebObjects.
