I'm hoping that IBM makes the best of it, but I'm imagining that in five years, FileNet's current content management will just be subsumed into IBM's Content Manager. I have better hopes for FileNet's BPM, which could be used to nicely round out IBM's Websphere BPM offerings. Assuming that someone at IBM figures out that it's not just "content-centric".

Nice round up of thoughts and insights. I hope that IBM can really make something of the talent and technology inside FileNet, not just use it as a crowbar to get into the customer base.
