I don't have any info about jBASE.  However about Microsoft...

I just posted another blog page that concisely summarizes all of the
Microsoft pages related to this event. There aren't that many really, it
just seems like it.  Some Microsoft pages are updated on an almost daily
basis - you really should have a look.

I won't be doing a similar page for IBM, RedHat, HP, or other vendors as it
seems they have a much more limited set of products affected by these
changes and I've already published links for them.  Please feel free to
post a comment on the blog if you find links that would be helpful to our
colleagues.
