Was it Founded or cofounded Tivoli Systems?

I am somewhat unsure if it is true to say whether Bob Fabbio founded or co-founded Tivoli Systems. He was certainly a key may if not the key man. But are we sure it was all done to him? .... see e.g. www.bizjournals.com/austin/stories/2006/04/24/story2.html Djm-leighpark (talk) 18:18, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bob Fabbio left IBM in 1989 without a job and launched Tivoli Systems. It was not until 6-8 weeks later, after Fabbio had landed consulting contracts to boot-strap the business, did he start to bring on others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.112.158.218 (talk) 03:52, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for comments ... although I can't cite what you've put it is consistent with the Bloomberg citation in this article which is citable means the Tivoli Software article needs a tweak to avoid an inaccuracy. Thanks. Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:59, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have done that tweak to the Tivoli article based on comment here which I assume is in good faith and the Bloomberg reference

Conclusion: Founder was Robert Fabbio (unless someone offers citations to another explaination.Djm-leighpark (talk) 10:48, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
