Nope - DevCo isn't part of it. 
 
Customer Support has a line into R&D but they aren't really part of it,
so they can only request stuff gets done. IMHO, if support is part of
R&D they get much better feedback on what is wrong and the allocation of
resources and funding is much clearer. I hope DevCo does this as well.

Interesting article, especially this bit "...Borland has folded Customer
Support into Research and Development to improve responsiveness to
customers...".  Sounds a bit odd to me, R&D guys doing customer support.
That would piss me off.




Sounds like DevCo is not part of this though.

Realism.
