You are correct. :-) This would be a good time to introduce Vince Baertsoen, VFX Supe here at The Mill in NYC. He's the bearded fellow who appears at 1:25 in the video, and I believe the main architect behind the feather system, along with David Barosin. I've been working with Vince since the

Thanks Vince! Folks should know he's been an XSI and ICE afficionado for a long time now, just not as visible in the community because he's dealing with numerous internal issues and mailing lists at The Mill. Actually, there are quite a few such fellows here at The Mill. It's ironic, I think.

The 70% of the full price for an update is not a rumor, I got that in an official mail from my reseller a month ago. They say this will be effective from February 2013. I haven't heard of the general price increase but wouldn't be surprised - I guess it's more the question of when than if. And
