The "grow your own" competitive intelligence network on Ning is ablaze with comments about the SCIP and Frost & Sullivan merger. One of the people on the network contacted FSI directly to get their view of the merger and if what they wrote is accurate it seems to be very different from what SCIP members were told before they voted for the merger. In a way it doesn't matter because SCIP would have folded if the vote had been no, but it also could make the transition pretty ugly if the members feel misled.
