Tom, Bill -
To the best of my knowledge Steve Covin is not affiliated in any way with CPQ at this time and is a lot less connected than he was when he was actively posting. He is now working for a company which supplies components to CPQ. His restrictions about providing information have got to be a lot more related to his current company than to CPQ directly.

Steve (hpeace) does know a lot of CPQ insiders and probably has a good handle into the rumor mill in the 'old guard' at CPQ. But those are not the folks calling the shots any more. The CPQ old boy network is just as confused about what will happen as those outside the company.

The guys who know are not the ones who were running things 5 years ago. They are guys like John Rose, Enrico Pesatori, John Rando, Earl Mason - all ex-DEC and all with CPQ less than 5 years. And those guys are not talking much about their plans.
