Has anyone seen a list of the tools upgrades that will benefit us for the 8.96 Toolset. We are looking for performance and stability increases (I have seen issues in the forums). We are on SQL2000 8.95 tools all Intel, we are looking for the support for Websphere 6 and SQL2005 support when that comes out. We had heard from Oracle that you had to go to 8.96 for the SQL2005 support because of the JDBC driver support. Our go-live date is 2 months before Microsoft is slated to stop general support on SQL2000, so SQL2005 isn't an option that coupled with IBM no longer supporting Websphere 5.0 we must upgrade the tools. Any advise would be welcome.
