Interesting, thanks Luc-Eric,  it certainly looks very tied in to Maya at this 
stage, although I am sure it is mostly a front end.  Much in the way Pixomondo 
integrated Naiad into Max, although deeper by the looks of all the adaptive 
stuff.  I imagine this level of integration would be a bit trickier in Soft due 
to the older school nature of the IO.

I must admit at this point I am pretty tempted to start looking into Houdini, 
even just for fluids it could be good value, particularly with Arnold 
integration.  I don't want to bash on Maya any more than necessary, but if I am 
going to pick a partner for Soft to extend it into areas of simulation that it 
struggles in I don't think I will we going down the Maya path...
