RE: RE: FYI, FM for the Mac is Done.

I'm concentrating my research into future tools on XML and
its potential successors.  I've always been uncomfortable
with the idea that my continued ability to access and use
my legacy data depends on proprietary formats, and having
spent the past few years being able to generate deliverables
like Winhelp and HTML using competing manufacturers' tools
convinces me that our next step should be to an industry 
standardized format that won't be dependent on a particular
tool manufacturer.

easier if FM sticks around for awhile, I will simply learn 
how the new "tech writing workhouse" operates and move on.

While the user base for FrameMaker may not be growing, it 
is still there and I trust Adobe to recognize it. If (and 
when) they eventually drop development of FM, I hope they 
replace it with something else
