Most of us who praise FrameMaker ('syrupy'? I prefer 'enthusiastic') are
-not- employed by Frame.
The one Frame employee who -has- contributed to this list is always very
discreet. She occasionally provides information about the software in
response to specific questions/comments by other list members. She does
NOT indulge in obvious sales pitches for her employer.
That's where -I- draw the line.
