Well done Dave. Succession planning is under rated and hard to do. Thanks for

The Izzi Software website (https://izzisoftware.com) says:
"Izzi is interested in companies with a history of providing both innovative
solutions and excellent service. We’re seeking founder-led or founder-owned
organizations with less than $10M annual recurring revenue who have great
products
Wildass guess: because it means the ownership and $ are thus simpler? You're
less likely to have to deal with a half-dozen-plus VCs, each of whom thought
this was a 100x company and now wants to make at least 10x.
I agree, it's an odd requirement!

I know Dave and I have used z/XDC continuously since the 1980s.
My concern is more applicable to the general case when an M&A company
acquires a mainframe software company; these things usually happen:
1) Staff is reduced
2) Product(s) are renamed
3) Prices are raised
and that is invariably foll

Well, this thread turned contentious...not my intent! My ramblings on the topic
follow; I expect to be beaten up for it, but hope we can have a meaningful
discussion (speculation) instead.
Yes, it's hard to see how a new mainframe company can do much more than eke out
an existence and then sell

With all due respect, you are the founder of Izzi Software. Hardly
objective.
I've been doing this for a long time as well, and have had to deal with
stuff like this for most of those years (the years of CA and the Band of

Dave is right. We need new players in the mainframe marketplace. More like,
say, MacKinney Systems or, yes, Izzy, not like CA^H^HBroadcom or BMC.
Will they make a go of it? Good question. Should they try? Absolutely!

In any case, whether or not I'm "objective" in your eyes has little
