Jon, I'm pretty certain that this is not the first attempt by SAP to develop a SFA and that is what Tom Siebel is referring to. I think this is something like their third or fourth attempt. I don't read anything at all like fear into the statement. I think he's just making a point based on the facts vs. trying to mislead the analysts or say things about other vendors that simply aren't true. You can't get on a conference call with analysts here in the U.S. and make things up about your competition that simply aren't true and expect to maintain any credibility w/the investment community. <<There could be a lot of reasons for him leaving. But I will say one thing. At SAP he was an easily replaceable person>> He was heading up the entire SCM effort at SAP. I'd hate to think someone in a position like that is so easily replaceable.
