Open Question:

According to General Atlantics Website they have been invested in Manugistics since 1996 to the tune of 10 million. They claim to bring business expertise as partnering assistance to the companies they invest in. Did they stumble with Bill Gibson or is he the only fall guy. One might would assume they were privy to a number of his management decisions which have reduced performance and expectations regarding Manugistics. Gibson certainly does'nt have the Business School pedigree that Atlantic Generals stable of partners have. Since Mr. Cline is a Partner in General Atlantic is his investment for the group or personal? Why with their collective wisdom have they not guided Manugistics better? 10 Million is not chump change but it is one of their smaller holdings. How much does it take to buy a seat at the Directors Table and how compelling should that be considering previous performance. I'd say the market needs to be shown!
