Peter and ratlong,

thanks to both of you for your summaries of the conference
call!

This is pure speculation, but what about this:
* RATL now has 260 million in cash.
* Levy is becoming working chairman and gets time
"freed up", while Devlin and new COO runs current
operations.
* Statements that RATL will "become a much larger
enterprise".
* Don't want to make any short-term prognosis or
guidance, though they have done so in the past.
* 60% of licenses sold to companies involved in
embedded software (which is where ObjecTime
operates, which they have an option to buy).

Dare I say "Acquisition" !?

Again, just pure speculation. If that would be the case,
it doesn't have to be a negative -- depending on what
they buy and at what price, it could be a positive
defining them even further as the complete software
engineering tools company.

Best,

/Hans-Erik
