I was speaking in a general sense as your initial statement was pretty much open to various interpretations and wasn't specific in its intent.
You are of course correct in that this action has already been taken... whats left is for the users to decide if we are comfortable with this and if we wish to continue running our communities on this platform or if we wish to take our business elsewhere. The nature of this conversation is to determine the facts and figures that will help us make this decision. As for the "issues" there are a few dozen between this thread and the one on vbulletin.com. The concerns are being voiced, its up the company to address.

I reckon IB's going to keep Jelsoft for a year or so, and when it's at a high value, sell it off.

I too would like it better if Jelsoft was bought by a software company. If Google bought Jelsoft that would have been good
 But it's not all that bad, IB is a .com investor, or it looks like it to me. Investment alone could help Jelsoft grow and create more products for us to use. I'm not terribly impressed with Project Tools, but the Blogs have a chance. As for being a volunteer at vB.org, last I heard this site is for forum administrators and hobbyists to share modifications of their boards, that should be the reward in itself. Not related, but mod users that expect professional support of free mods amuse me. I don't think everyone should release everything here for free, and I have no problems with coders looking for paid jobs, but it's really annoying to see "lite" versions of paid mods on a forum whose intent is for sharing work. I know I have strayed from the topic, but I think a new forum should be created, called Paid Mods, where coders would be allowed to create a topic for each paid mod advertising it. I'm going to create a topic about his on the Feedback forum right now, drop by if you like the idea.

Wayne is 100% correct here ... they are not a software company, they are an advertising company. They do a lot of software and product development for the simple reason that it helps drives advertising revenue. This is an excellent example of what I meant earlier about acquisitions supporting a company's core focus and the importance of having a single vision for each department and entity to work towards.
