What is the future of Fluid Bed Roasting?

It has come to my attention that the coffee genius, Michael Sivetz, has fallen ill and that his son is now in charge of his business.  The head engineer of Sivetz’s Fluid Bed roaster manufacturing has left the company and has started his own business http://www.heisroasters.com/  Neuhaus Neotec, a company out of Germany who currently uses Sivetz roaster design, may be looking to purchase Sivetz’s company.  Neuhaus Neotec does not currently produce a smaller specialty coffee model and this may be a way for them to get their foot in the door.  Other roaster manufacturers are also looking at purchasing Sivetz’s company.
