Yang has stepped down, so now it's likely we'll see a new puppet regime
that is MS merger friendly. I just hope they don't move the Zimbra forums under
that awful MS site and sign us all up for Windows Live/Passport or whatever
they're calling it these days. More than likely they'll just shut the public one down
and merge in the paid seats to the MS site.

Sorry, what happens will be what be. If that does happen everyone can decide the direction they wish to take. Until then as far as I am concerned I am Zimbra focused. IMHO.

As am I, but it was an event that caught my attention. It will be interesting
with MS foisting off hosted Exchange now, prospects for Zimbra under MS look pretty
dim.

No, they don't.
