P. Thibodeau's article of 6/27 contains the following "In a written response last week, David Wilde, HP's e3000 business manager, narrowed that time frame [for the announcement] to near the end of the year. He also said HP has 'met and exceeded' its road map commitments for enhancements and patches as part of the e3000's end-of-life phase." |

The Board is increasingly disappointed with HP. HP promised 14 months ago to make a contribution to OpenMPE that is yet to be delivered. The Board wants to tell M. Pavinen, during our joint July meeting, that we are preparing to take this issue public. |
