That was the first thought after I read the news...
Would be pretty, wouldn't it.

    well...

    "Autodesk will not continue to market and sell Naiad as a standalone
    product but it is anticipated that certain Naiad technology may find
    its way into future Autodesk offerings. As of this time, there are no
    new product or offering announcements pertaining to the Autodesk
    software portfolio."

    "...may find its way..."?????

    This statement tells me that they are quite far from getting that
    integration working. We were using Naiad for a test for a feature
    film. And by the looks of it, we will be going to RealFlow/Houdini
    right now. I don't understand why they had to kill it, it was a
    functional product. And we were able to render it with Arnold.....
    *sniff*....
