This is kinda sad. I spent 3 years on my first job in 1989 on Ingres. Not just the database but creating applications using Ingres' tools (ABF, QBF, IIRC). I remember developers running a query and going off for coffee forgetting to type "commit".

It sounds like Actian is going to continue to develop Ingres. Given that, it might be a bit soon to declare that Ingres is 'dead'.
