I think you misread part the artcle... Softricity is a wholly owned
subsidary.

"With the closing of this acquisition, Softricity becomes a wholly owned
subsidiary of Microsoft, and integration of Softricity's technologies into
the Microsoft software delivery and engineering processes begins."

 Interesting eh?



I find 3 things in the release of interest (IMHO)



1)      Softricity is still Softricity,  but not a wholly owned subsidiary


2)      Zero-Touch and the SMS Connector are now FREE

3)      The cost of SoftGrid will be CUT!  This is GREAT NEWS!!!
