Frankfurt -- JBoss, a U.S.-based provider of
open-source business
software, announced that it has acquired Objectone, a Germany-
based systems integrator that supports JBoss's products. Financial
terms of the deal were not disclosed. Objectone has been JBoss's
most successful reseller in Germany, the company said. JBoss --
which said it would retain a majority of Objectone's staff -- is itself
rumoured to be a likely acquisition target, perhaps by Oracle. The
company said it expected to close the Objectone deal by March 1.
