SAP to Reduce Business ByDesign Staff?

I think that's what this Bloomberg article is saying when it refers to SAP's "rental software project". The article also says the "workforce will be reduced to 1,800 from 2,600 as large parts of the software are already developed".

Update:
SAP: Business ByDesign SaaS Is 'Mature' (Information Week)
How can a product that's only being tested by 10 to 20 customers be considered "mature"?

Another thought: Does it really take 2600 people to create some SaaS software? Maybe thats been their problem.
