[Meryem Ersoz]

I wonder how this purchase will influence The Foundry?

The answer is perhaps found in this interview I did with the head of the Foundry.

I can say they remain very committed to RED workflow and Storm.

thanks, Mike - I will check it out

they have a large portfolio of media holdings, although The Foundry doesn't seem like the others. I always think of The Foundry as the geeky brainiac upstarts...hope that doesn't change.
