The decision makers at AD need to put themselves in the shoes of the XSI
users, users that have been using Softimage /XSI from day 1.
How would they feel and how would they respond?

To do exactly what is being done. Strip Softimage of its Intellectual
Property, Kill it and bring all that they can into Maya. End of Story.
I knew it from day one but didnt want to believe it and was actually
comforted by a lot of the old timers saying that the death of
softimage has been sung since it started and not to worry. We have a
bright future and more yada yada yada.

Maurice,
Just one more question: couldn't you have realized that in
2008? Why buy Softimage if it's just to realize you don't have
enough resource to develop it?
Back in 2008 there were other companies willing to acquire
Softimage and they would have kept developing it, not kill it.
Shame.

The answer to those three questions are so we can focus
more of our efforts on Maya and 3ds Max.
