Craig, I totally agree with you. I too hope this is not another Amazon vs. BN story. Look at NIKU board, they are
1. John Chen, President and CEO, Sybase
2. Terence J. Garnett, Venture Partner, Venrock Associates
3. Maynard G. Webb, President, eBay Technologies
4. William Raduchel, Chief Technical Officer, America Online, Inc.
5. Michael C. Brooks, General Partner, J.H. Whitney & Co.
and technology partners such as SUN, NETSCAPE, ORACLE, SYBASE. NIKU looks more E-commerce oriented, and that is why it is richly valued. Deltek will need to move more aggressively to gain respects. Anyway, let's hope Deltek is going that way.
