======= We've all been through this before. Some things will happen that we don't like beyond our control, but in the end the technology we all use and the industry we're all a part of will be just fine. You never know, this could be a very good thing that expands market share and increases the size of our community. Bain is Guitar Center, Gymboree, Staples, Clear Channel, Dominoes Pizza, Dunkin' Donuts, Toys R Us, and Sports Authority. Those are all pretty much household names. It's not such a bad thing to have the Action Request System on the same list. --Steve On Mon, May 6, 2013 at 11:37 AM, John Sundberg < john.sundb...@kineticdata.com> wrote: > ** > > On Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 7:04 PM, John Sundberg <john.sundb...@kineticdata.com> > wrote: > > > ** It is a little hard to say what "version" it was.... > > Because in 2012 -- BMC renamed it all to BMC Atrium ... threw in the > kitchen sink -- which included the Remedy product and the ITSM Suite + some > discovery software + a CMDB... > > But in 2014 Oracle broke it all up -- and peeled off the ITSM software > into something they called "Oracle Service Support" ....
