ratlong,

I'm trying to analyze all this - will get back to you and the
thread when I'm done. Overall looks very promising though,
this is the completion of all the mergers trying to get
a streamlined product portfolio. Agreed, nice move on
pricing too.

Hope they don't sit too much in the lap of the Redmond,Wa.
company though - Rational Rose for Java is the Rose version
with the highest growth and MSFT ain't winning that war.

As the hub for all their suites I see Rational Unified Process
and Rose, which is great. All those tools without a process
is useless, and the base for development should be the
architectural models - also realize the amount of training and consulting necessary to deploy all these tools into
development organizations (hey, that's what I'm doing -
but I'll leave some work for RATL... :-) ).

Will try and get back with some more analysis soon. Still
maintain my view of a 'gorilla pattern', it just becomes more
and more apparent: how can any other company cut in here ?

I didn't catch the teleconference (too long-distance call),
can anyone sum it up ? Any news that weren't in the news
releases ?

Best,

/Hans-Erik
