An attempt to let SilverStream know about this possible oversight met with failure; the Technical Contact email address is no longer valid...

That's because Charlie Ungaschick has jumped ship, moved on to another company: isovia.com.

And the Administrative Contact lcolern@silverstream.com doesn't work either.

What does this all mean?

Does it mean Silverstream is going to abandon the Application Server market?

Does it mean they're going to change their package names to "com.SomethingElse..." and make everyone change their code?

Or does it simply prove the obvious, that Dilbert works at SilverStream?
