Infor loyalty oath, cont'd

CRN reports that serial grave-digger Infor is really putting the screws to its partners, to the tune of one point of margin for every day they don't turn in their exclusivity agreement. Yikes!

MS: No more, thanks, we're full

Here's a little counter-programming. The new head of Microsoft's BS division (um, that's short for Business Solutions), says they don't want to buy any more ERP systems, they've got enough.

Oh, and despite what you might have read below, Project Green is alive and well in Denmark:

A 900-person team there is developing the four products in the Dynamics family: AX, NAV, GP and SL.

That team -- an increasing number of which include non-Danes, thanks to flexible immigration laws in Denmark -- is taking each of those variations and merging them onto one code base, a long-term project that Andersen said could run through 2012 or even 2015.

Andersen downplayed the end date, saying that customers are "all going to get to the same place at the same point."

Huh?
