Maybe but it's still a long way
I have followed MS going to OpenPegasus (and DMTF) a while now. Yes, they have a very good group, etc for it but they don't have the resistance only from outside but from inside also as far as I have seen. Good luck, I believe that if they overcome the political problems, they can in a couple of years be a player. Not dominating, others have been longer on this, stagnated for a while but can get to speed very fast again, assuming big companies can ever be "fast". And DMTF (CIM, whatever) will be better for systems management than previous, very old, architectures.
