I can't speak for the products Marcy has listed, but there are factors
that often prevent support from day 1:
1) The schedule is Novell's and not IBM's
2) The Schedule can slip even for beta releases causing testing delays.
3) IBM Testing is not complete until you have tested on a Novell GA releas
Normally, for most products, IBM tests them on the new release before the
availability date. If it
runs with no problems then it is supported from day 1. If they have to change
something then support
may be later. If it is easy to fix they may support it (with the fix) from day
1.

Have to do some 2009 planning...
How long is it typically between the availability of the next release of
SLES (or RHEL for that matter) before IBM will support WAS, DB2, MQ
Series on it?
