Is FrameMaker dead?

[Sam Beard]

Trish,

   Adobe just released FrameMaker 8, as well as announced a new suite
that includes FrameMaker 8, Robohelp, and Captivate. It doesn't seem to
me that FrameMaker will die anytime soon.

Hi,

I recently heard a new rumor that FrameMaker is being phased out. Is
this true? If so, what is the new preferred writing/publishing tool?
Thanks.
