I know I know, I did check the archives, but this was information I
have received today ... so I thought maybe there's something going on
that I hadn't noticed (not currently reading the list with the same
ardour as some months ago) ...
thanks anyway :)

Why would they come out with the Adobe Technical Writing Suite and then
just drop it?

On behalf of Adobe Systems Incorporated, let me assure you that
FrameMaker remains under active development. A next major version
is currently being developed.
Any person attending an Adobe training session would certainly
not have heard any information to the contrary.

There is a point when such speculation does warrant consideration, such
as the (very) long lag between updates or new releases that FrameMaker
has experienced in the past. However, given the fairly recent release
of FM8 and then
They just invested a ton of work into not only FM8 but also to RH 6 so
the two tools can work together.
This topic comes up regularly, and yet FM hasn't gone anywhere.

Adobe just came out with version 8 a few months ago, and two updates since.
They are also actively seeking feature requests for version 9 in the Adobe
FrameMaker Users Forum. You'd be better off to worry about FrameMaker's
competitors. :)

Oh, no, not again! Where do these death of FrameMaker myths start? If
you've been going to conferences and reading industry-related
publications, you'd know FrameMaker is alive and well loved by Adobe.

I wonder is these rumors are started by competitors. It's possible that
Adobe puts less development time into FM as they do their other more
profitable programs, but I think it's highly unlikely that they will
stop developing it entirely.

We at Adobe would greatly appreciate it if you could send me, off-list,
the name of the Adobe-approved training company that either stated
or implied that there may be an end to development of FrameMaker.
We would like to follow-up with them and send them for re-education at

Understand, though, that even if that "works" it would be considered
an unsupported configuration by Adobe. There is absolutely NO technical
support for using Adobe applications under such environments. (A similar
