Borland has anounced plans to buy TogetherSoft (http://www.togethersoft.com). Togethersoft produces an impressive integrated toolset for modeling tool for J2EE, .Net, XML, etc., round trip engineering, etc. Many of us prefer it to Rational's tools. Is this why MS is interested in Borland?
In addition to its stand-alone product, Togethersoft is scheduled to release a WebSphereStudio version in a few days. That version is built on eclipse (www.eclipse.org) -- an open source IDE used and developed by IBM.
All this would strengthen the MS position in traditional enterprises.
