I have it on *very* good authority that Ardent Software (which was
formed by the merger of Unidata and Vmark Software (who made the
Universe DBMS)) is in the midst of porting their O2 object database to
Linux. They have a client who wants it bad enough that it is actually
close to being complete. It's expensive, but people from Ardent have
confirmed that it is very close to completion. Their corporate web
site is www.ardentsoftware.com and mentions their 3 databases
(Unidata, Universe, and O2) but no mention yet of the Linux port.
