Another issue may be that there hasn't been anything revolutionary, earth-shattering, or system-breaking with respect to Frame in a while. Outside of "how do I?..." posts to the list, we typically see the most traffic when something new or radically different is either announced or launched.
Re: long in the tooth, file me in that category. I took early retirement in October of 2021, although I'm being brought back each year as a seasonal consultant to continue producing the textbook that I've been doing in Frame for the last 17 years... so we're not all dead yet. 😉 -Dan -----Original Message----- From: Framers <framers-bounces+dharding=illinois....@lists.frameusers.com> On Behalf Of Tammy Van Boening Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2023 10:48 AM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: Re: [Framers] Have not seen any emails in this list since ... I don't think it's a List issue. It's just that the vast majority of users on the list are getting long in the tooth (if they haven't already retired), so list traffic has dropped exponentially. Makes me feel a tad lonely and sad after being an active member for almost 25 years!! The names that still ring in my head that were once so very active on the list . . . I do know that if you post a question, there's a stalwart group of us left (Alison, Mike, Peter Gold, Fred Ridder, Lin Sims, me, Rick and several others) who will always answer. I do agree with Craig - us few survivors are darn near experts at this point (save the one or two Whiskey/Tango/Foxtrot moments that Frame can still provide) and the position of FrameMaker in the marketplace probably doesn't support its fervent use any more. I am just glad that I will be fully retired before I witness it's death. Here's to a happy and healthy 2023 for all of us.
