Users - IBM DB2 Express-C

[byersa]

I see where IBM is making its DB2 Express-C database available for free.
Is this significant? Its only limitations seem to be two processor
sockets (so dual core = 4 processors is okay) and 4GB of memory.

I don't know that it helps the project much, but I guess it would be  
a good option for a production database for smaller deployments (or  
even fairly large deployments... we've had people doing over 1000  
orders per day on a retail site with a db box like this).

Because we are using Derby (following just the pattern IBM hoped I  
believe...) moving to DB2 and up the echelons of DB2 should be fairly  
easy...
