Hi Steve,

Yes, you are right, I didn't answer Rick's question. I have no answer, other 
than that Lynda.com provides training which wouldn't be used weekly in 
production as FrameMaker usually is.

I do however feel that everyone should be aware that they only have 10 days 
left to get 5 products for $1 per day. That is a pretty big deal, and it ends 
forever on May 30th.

I will now exit this discussion. I do appreciate your feedback.

Subject: RE: FrameMaker 12 Cloud

With all respect to Maxwell, special offers do not answer Rick's point. Adobe 
has generated *massive* ill-will over its licensing policies; I only hope this 
this is reflected in some substantive way, such as the stock price, that will 
cause it to rethink.

>Incidentally, if a major release comes out (e.g. FrameMaker 13) during your 
>subscription, you are automatically upgraded at no extra cost.

This is often touted as an advantage of cloud-based services, but is in fact a 
Really Bad Thing, as it can invalidate an organization's substantial investment 
in training and expertise by changing user interfaces and capabilities without 
warning - not to mention, er..., causing disruption to productivity (modesty 
forbids me from putting this more strongly, although I'd like to).

Just my 10c.
