[ic] Zelerate going under? (Potential Redhat acquisition)
Linux Today quotes a story on the register about Zelerate possibly going under:

Unless I'm the victim of an April Fools (quite possible).
What about Red Hat coming in to save the day? Akopia skillfully wove
together Tallyman and Minivend (okay, mostly minivend), so why not look at
the possibility of weaving together some of the code from AllComerce? For
example, the "Warehouse Management" and Fulfillment house integration stuff
sounds pretty interesting. While we're at it, maybe some of the fired or
soon-to-be-fired perl-hacking, GPL-coding talent from Zelerate would be
valuable? (AllCommerce is coded in perl *and* under the GPL, so that
should help).
Frankly, I never have trouble recommending business decisions. (Problem
is, people frequently recommend them to me too, i.e., "Be quiet, Dan").
