I forget exactly what Websphere piece it is, but it's one of the things intended to leverage the Domino JSP libraries (formerly known as Garnet.) There used to be a limited-use DB2 entitlement, but with the deprecation of NSFDB2, I don't think that will be very useful.<br /><br />The folks who are on Notes 4 and 5 who still pay for maintenance do so for exactly the opposite of your reasoning: so they can call IBM for support. I agree it's strange, but for them, it's worth it.<br /><br />At any rate, with that number of servers, I'm surprised it doesn't make more sense to look at Express licensing, unless by "small" you still mean "more than 1000"Nathan T.
