Report from the Developer Conference?

I was thwarted at the check-in counter by Alaska Airlines in my attempt to go to the developer conference yesterday. I'm bummed I missed it. Were any of these questions answered?

* When will Apex be availabe in General release?
* Will it have additional cost or will it be included in specific editions of Salesforce.com?
* Will there be an SOA preview program? How would one get in on that?

Thanks!

Steve

Hey Steve sorry you couldn't make it. I don't think we announced any details on the first 2 questions(Benji or Andrew can jump in and correct me on those), for the last question, the Apex developer preview will be expanded to include the Salesforce SOA features, some of which are already available in the developer preview today (e.g. the ability to write a web service handler in Apex code), some of which will be part of the next major release.

Thanks for covering the last question, Simon.

As for the others...

Apex is targeted for general availability in December 2007.

We have not yet announced pricing and packaging information.
