Subject:Fwd: [ANN] Official Adobe Response to InfoWorld From:"Eric J. Ray" <ejray -at- raycomm -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 08 Feb 2001 04:51:34 -0700
This was sent to me by an Adobe representative in
response to the "Is Frame Dead?" notes on the list
last week.
Eric
FrameMaker® Alive and Well at Adobe
"Contrary to reports that have appeared in the Robert X. Cringley
column in
the February 2, 2001 issue of InfoWorld or in the on-line version of
this
column on InfoWorld's website, Adobe is completely committed to
developing
and supporting the FrameMaker product. Currently, the FrameMaker
engineering
and product management teams are busy working on the next major release
of
the product, including developing new features based on customer
feedback.
FrameMaker engineering is actively searching for new recruits.
FrameMaker sales this year have been excellent. The success of
FrameMaker
can in part be attributed to its adoption of emerging technologies such
as
XML and its positioning as a multichannel publishing solution.
In this year alone, the FrameMaker team has attended and held more
marketing
events than ever, and will continue its active marketing push
throughout the
coming year. In the coming months, look for FrameMaker at the following
conferences and trade shows: On Demand; Seybold; WinWriters Online Help
Conference; Annual STC Conference; FOSE; and XML Europe 2001. You can
also
expect another multi-city seminar tour to happen in the May timeframe
that
will focus on FrameMaker and eBooks.
FrameMaker holds a unique position in the multichannel publishing
market,
and is poised to take advantage of the rapidly growing trends towards
XML
and Network Publishing. Adobe continues to be committed to these
markets and
to the future of the FrameMaker product line."
