With the anticipated downturn in the US, banks in turmoil over sub-prime lending I fret over who will pull SOA along for the next year or two. Will it continue to bud? Or, die on the vine? My company is very broad several thousand customers doing Web services and SOA. I did a quick tally of our customer's my sector and we are over 68% in financial+insurance.

I can't imagine the acquisition was above liquidation levels. I think you’re right on the money (so to speak), Joe. I can’t imagine the acquisition was above liquidation levels.

Instead all the preference holders will get to exchange their worthless capeclear paper for a much smaller amount of (more valuable) Workday paper. Aneels wins twice as a partner of Greylock and of course Greylock and Accel love the idea of having a foot in the door at Workday. It remains to be seen whether the common stock holders will see a dimes worth of stock. Execution has been patchy and with 45m million raised they were never going to fulfil there promise.
