Many of you probably noticed that Geac is planning more cutbacks.

I'm wondering what anyone is hearing whether System 21 will stay with Geac
or have a new owner.  I would also be interested in comments (public or
private) from anyone that has gone through maintenance fee renewals after
being on one of JBA's famous 5 year prepaid maintenance deals where
maintenance "free" and the software "price" was increased.
