All, DR. Merrill contacted me off-list. It seems that things that were said at the CMG conference yesterday that could lead one to believe that his retirement was imminent.
I apologized to Dr. Merrill, and I apologize to the list. I assumed wrongly that this was the case. _________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma Assistant Vice President, Mainframe Services david.jou...@53.com 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB1G p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.8497 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Barry Merrill Sent: Thursday, December 10, 2009 12:17 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Future of MXG? I surely would have appreciated if you had checked your facts before broadcasting such a scurrilous statement, especially since I specifically stated in our User Group/Vendor Session yesterday evening that I have EVERY INTENTION OF LIVING TO 100 AND HAVE NO PLANS TO EVER RETIRE. Merrilly yours, Barry Merrill P.S. While our intentions on our demise are still personal, I am quite certain that MXG Software will exist long after I do. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
