With nearly a month having passed since Borland's announcement, InfoWorld Editor at Large Paul Krill spoke to Borland's Erik Frieberg, vice president of product marketing and strategy

IW: Can you tell me who some of the interested parties might be? And how much money you might get for selling these off?

Frieberg: I'm not the right person to comment on that. The key issue is that, what [new Borland CEO Tod Nielsen] did do with the [Borland] board is express [that] it's more around finding the right buyer, it's not about finding the best price. So, it is a board-level commitment that it's finding the best buyers because we have and will have a lot of joint customers going forward. We need to find the right buyer who will be synergistic with Borland going forward, and it's not just about selling the assets at the best price.

IW: When you say it's about finding the best buyer, does that mean it will be somebody who would continue with these products?

Frieberg: Oh, absolutely. Not just continue, [but] invest in them, build the business. And we will still have a lot of integration and synergies between these products as IDEs and the ALM lifecycle.
