Hi,

Ok, suppose (only suppose) it's not a bug, is it a good thing?
If you look all the thread you'll se I'm the only one who thinks so.

I can't understand the last sentence:
> There are too many move valuable things that R&D can spend time on to
> invest their time in making IB support mixed mode joins.

I translate it in my own spaghetti English:
 "We have so many things to work on that we cannot pay attention to this 
issue"
Is it so?

Hi,

Massimiliano
