Hello JBoss Community,
>
> I am writing to you today to announce some very exciting news. JBoss and
> Red Hat have signed a definitive agreement whereby Red Hat will acquire
> JBoss. I am personally very excited about this news and wanted to take this
> opportunity to let you know what it means for JBoss, our customers, our
> partners, and our community as a whole.
>
> The goal of JBoss has always been to promote and accelerate the adoption
> of open source and the Professional Open Source Model. Although JBoss has
> been experiencing tremendous growth as an independent company, we believe
> strongly that there is an even greater opportunity to join forces with a
> larger and more established open source provider to further expedite the
> growth of our channel, expand our services offering and coverage, and
> expedite acceptance of JEMS technology as an enterprise standard. JBoss
> chose Red Hat because of our common vision around open source, our joint
> desire to protect the integrity of open source, and because of tremendous
> synergies in our business model. Red Hat was the natural choice for JBoss
> and we are very excited to be a part of the largest independent open source
> provider.
>
> We are very confident that our customers will benefit from our approach of
> delivering an end-to-end open source platform that reduces cost and improves
> efficiencies across the entire application life-cycle and that is supported
> by an exceptional global support organization. Red Hat and JBoss share a
> common vision of providing exceptional customer value through an online
> services network (Red Hat Network, JBoss Operations Network) and we fully
> expect to leverage their joint capabilities in a very complementary fashion.
>
> I am also very excited about what this announcement means for our
> certified partners. Red Hat and JBoss both expect this acquisition to
> increase the overall demand for open source certified solutions and
> services. This union creates the logical target platform for ISVs and OEMs
> to bundle and/or embed and increases the market size for compatible and
> certified products and services for Red Hat and JBoss enterprise customers.
> Together, Red Hat, JBoss, and our ecosystem of certified partners will
> continue to provide exceptional customer value and lower the cost of IT for
> our joint enterprise customers.
>
> We are very dedicated to preserving our open source communities. The
> combined companies will continue to invest in development of new open source
> technologies while reaching out to the wider open source community as a
> whole to encourage continued and active participation in the success of our
> combined open source projects. Additionally, we absolutely understand that
> our communities, customers, and partners require support for heterogeneous
> platforms. As such, we will continue to deliver open source products that
> support multiple operating and Middleware platforms. The flexibility and
> modularity that you have come to expect from JBoss will continue.
>
> If you would like more information on this announcement, I invite you to
> visit our website: www.jboss.com/redhat<http://now.eloqua.com/er.asp?s=257&lid=540&elq=DBA3914BD9194727B8DBDB092DE59DA1>.
> Although I have spoken very positively about the acquisition, I must also
> point out that we still must obtain the necessary regulatory approvals
> before the deal can be completed. We hope and expect this process to be
> completed within the next sixty to ninety days. After the deal officially
> closes, we will begin to share more details with you on the specifics of our
> roadmaps and support offerings. I would recommend stopping by to see us at
> Java One this year and I strongly encourage you to attend JBoss World in Las
> Vegas on June 12-15.
>
> Oh, and remember, we love you.
>
> Marc Fleury
> Founder and CEO
> JBoss, Inc.
