Further to Mark's posting, I'd also also point out that you can watch:

   http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Whats_Great#Workbench

for the evolving what's great list.  Some of the other workbench
features, for example, like the drastic speedups when editting large
workspaces (we rewrote the undo/redo), will be sure to please many
folks, as well the ability to create and share your own "categories"
of transformers.

There is a great deal of work underway on FME 2007, its actually a
very ambitious release in terms of all that we are trying to
accomplish, so it should be fun to watch it unfold.

Lastly, I know that many of you will be saddened by this, but there is
a new splash screen and this time it is without any lizards.  A bit of
a return perhaps to my rural agriculture roots this time...

Enjoy.
