RE: [sqr-users] SQR Tecnical Documentation




It looks like the correct history is already there...
 
SQ Software created SQR in the mid 1980s. It had a marketing agreement with D & 
N Systems, which changed its name to SQL Solutions and was later acquired by 
Sybase Inc. Sybase purchased SQ Software in the early 1990s. To avoid competing 
directly with Oracle Corporation, Sybase had a marketing and development 
agreement with MITI for the Oracle database versions of SQR. MITI acquired the 
full rights to SQR in the mid 1990s. MITI changed its name to SQRiBE 
Technologies in 1997. Brio Technology acquired SQRiBE in August, 1999. Brio 
Technology later changed its name to Brio Software. Brio licensed the compiler 
source code to PeopleSoft Inc. sometime around 2000. Hyperion Solutions 
Corporation acquired Brio Software in October, 2003. Oracle Corporation 
acquired PeopleSoft in December, 2004. And as of March 2007 Oracle Corporation 
has acquired Hyperion Solutions, thus reuniting SQR with PeopleSoft.

clarkPSA: Salary <> Slavery. If you earn a salary, your employer is renting 
your services for 40 hours a week, not purchasing your soul. Your time is the 
only real finite asset that you have, and once used it can never be recovered, 
so don't waste it by giving it away. I work to live; I don't live to work.

determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it 
for you." -- Carl Sandburg (1878 - 1967) It is impossible to defeat an ignorant 
man in argument. -- William G. McAdoo Religion is regarded by the common people 
as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful. -- Seneca "I 
distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I
