In an e-mail sent to business partners, FatWire has just announced the end-of-life or "sunset" of version 4 of its Content Server CMS as of December 30th, 2005 (the company will continue to support V4 through June, 2006). Version 4 dates to when the CS product was owned by divine -- a period that brought many new customers, mainly due to a very large sales force and worldwide expansion. Many of these customers still run this same initial version. They now have a a deadline to make up their mind on whether they want to upgrade or change platform. Either way, it will be expensive, as the upgrade is a complicated one (CS is now on version 6). On a side note, CS has now been owned by FatWire longer than any of the prior owners (divine + Open Market).
