I'm a little confused on the exact lineage of DB2, but isn't it Open Source?
The confusion stems in part from the fact that a lot of typical Linux components, sendmail for instance, use "DB2" format databases for internal functions.
Then there's the big announcement by IBM that they were releasing DB2 to OS a year or so ago.
Are we all talking about the same software here?
