As mentioned in an Intelligent Enterprise interview with Bill McDermott, "Business Objects, an SAP company" is now simply "SAP Business Objects", and (from yesterday) the web site www.businessobjects.com now points to the SAP domain.

Prediction: within 3 years, SAP will be known as much for its business user solutions (Business Intelligence / Information Management / Enterprise Performance Management / Governance, Risk, and Compliance) as it is for its ERP solutions.
