The last advice I received was;

Data Services 4.0 has a medium ramp-up which is scheduled to take 6 monhths. We started ramp-up Dec 10th, so plan is to exit ramp-up and enter unrestricted shipment in June. Current plan is second half of June and alligned with the Data Services 4.0 SP01 release (with Solaris & AIX added to the list of supported OS).

BUT... one thing to keep in mind is that in order to exit ramp-up, some KPIs need to be met internally. Most important KPI is that we need to have about 25 customers participated in ramp-up and 5 of them need to be live in production with the new version. In case we don't meet these KPIs in June, the ramp-up will be extended untill these KPIs are met.

You can still sign-up for ramp-up to help us reach our KPI ! One important requirement for ramp-up is that SAP consulting needs to be involved as a ramp-up coach (which is not free of charge), but this will guarntee you a smooth upgrade to 4.0 !

Hope that helps...
