Solution : 
   Henrik,
   
   Here is the information I have from Sun.

   Hi Gary:
   
   To clarify further....
   
   1. There was a special promotional offer via the Sun website, but
   there were specific terms of accepting the pre-release via the web. It was
   good for up to only 10 users to evaluate, not actually use.  As well, there 
   is
   no support provided during the evaluation stage and the evaluation  expires 
   on
   March 15th.
   
   2. I called Sun Telesales this afternoon to find out when they will be
   shipping "as a new product purchase".  While Workshop 5.0 is orderable via
   Telesales, it is not currently shipping.  
   
   Sun Enterprise services will begin shipping the product sometime in April.
   You are on the list to receive.  We will keep you informed of the eta, as
   it becomes available.
   
   In the meantime, I want to be sure we have all pertinent domaines listed.
   Can you confirm the domaines you support.
   
   Feel free to call me at 916/855-4623, or page me at 1-888-206-7246.
   
   I would also like to schedule a meeting with you to identify ways in which
   we could better augment your efforts.  I understand software distribution
   is always a concern. It would help my customers if they had more information
   about upcoming releases...we are working on this at a Corporate level and
   your input is very valuable.
   
   Please let me know what works best for you.
   
   Take Care,

Gary,

The workshop compilers will not be shipping for contract entitlement
til around April 1999 or thereabouts. The download is no longer be
offered it was for a limited time only, if you have not already
downloaded it I do not believe you will be able to do so now.

I also beleive with the download was a time limited license that came
with it that the licenses center did not handle. What I'm trying to say
is the actual shipment of 5.0 for contract entitlements will be around
April 1999. And if you did not download the 5.0 from the web yet, the
promotion is over with.

I hope this helps, if not let me know we could talk over the phone to
better clarify this.

Thanks

Debbie
