Re: Is FrameMaker dead?

[John Hedtke <john -at- hedtke -dot- com>]

I'd certainly think not, as Adobe has just come out with their new 
Adobe Technical Communications Suite, which contains FM 8, Robohelp 
7, Captivate 3, and a few odds and ends.  I believe this says that 
they've not only gotten over the idea of us trying to use InDesign 
for everything, but it's also a pretty strong commitment to the 
continuation of FM as a product as well.
