I'm a big fan of the rule "Don't announce a Beta until there's a Beta to announce" so here it is:
a StackOverflow-style question-and-answer website dedicated to SQL Anywhere,in beta.
Be the second person to ask a question!
Here's what it says in the "How to Ask" box:
- Is your question about SQL Anywhere?
- Technical questions should start with "How do I [do some thing]?"
- Provide the version and build: SELECT @@VERSION
- Discussions are welcome! (this is NOT StackOverflow)
For more information, check out the first question and answer.
Here's a question that's not posted...
Q: Why the name "SQLA" instead of "SQLAnywhere"?
A: Let's just say we want to avoid any Imperial entanglements.

Did I say it was beta? StackExchange is in beta, and SQLA is in beta, expect changes, lots and lots of changes... or, if it doesn't go anywhere, no changes at all :)
Hi Breck,
I don't know where to post this question (NNTP, here, the new SX site):
Are there any (in)official plans from iAnywhere to support the new site?
IMHO, that would be the main reason to draw focus from the NNTP groups to any other place - and it would be worth a discussion, I think.
Volker Agrees Totally w.r.t. Beta Announcements and Availability:)
@Volker: If you have a question about SQLA, I think you should post it on SQLA. That deviates from StackOverflow policy (where you are not supposed to post questions about StackOverflow itself), but SQLA is not StackOverflow, it just *looks* like StackOverflow :)
To answer your question, at this point I have no idea what anyone in iAnywhere thinks of SQLA, let alone if they have any plans. To answer your *next* question, I have no expectations on the matter.
If you want to start a discussion on the subject, please do so: You are welcome to do so on SQLA, or you could do it on NNTP if you want... after all, that's what NNTP is *for* :)
