In other developments at Borland, company representatives said the planned sale of the tools group still is progressing but they would not be tied down to a September target date, which previously was cited by the company. "It's on track in terms of the steps that we need to go through to spin this organization out," said Rick Jackson, chief marketing officer at Borland.

The tools group remains profitable, Jackson said. "The reason that we're spinning it out is business focus," he said.

Borland officials also cited the Dutch police force as a new ALM customer and said EDS recently doubled its investment in Borland ALM technology, growing from 6,000 seats to 10,000 seats.
