Yes, it’s a pain. IBM and DDN are trying very hard to work something out, but it’s hard to get all the ‘I’s dotted and ‘T’s crossed with our respective legal and exec reviewers so that when we do say something it will be complete, clear, and final; and not require long, baroque threads for people to figure out where exactly they are…

I wish I could say more, but I need to respect the confidentiality of the relationship and the live discussion.

In the meantime, I thank you for your patience, and ask that you not believe any rumors you might hear, because whatever they are, they are wrong (or at least incomplete). In this situation, as a wise man once observed, “those who Say don’t Know; those who Know don’t Say”.
