No this is not what I am saying, I am starting to understand that every post begets a question and that probably the best way to discuss this face to face so I can answer questions properly. I keep seeing what I say taken out of context and twisted into things I don't mean. Given the complexity of the situation this is understandable but it is getting unproductive. So if you are truly interested . Ping me off-forum letting me know where and where to call Maurice
Maurice Patel Autodesk : Tél: 514 954-7134 From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [mailto:softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] On Behalf Of David Saber Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2014 7:22 PM To: softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Subject: Re: new Q&A with AD So if I understand correctly, Softimage is dead because of an AD mistake, right? AD buys Softimage, puts all its developers on this new technology called Skyline. They keep Softimage in life support, knowing it will be "replaced" some day by all this new tech. The community is worried with the lack of development and keeps asking what's the roadmap for Soft, to no avail. Then AD realizes Skyline wasn't a good idea. So they kill all these new tech plans. And as Softimage has no more future replacement, they just kill it as well. And now we all benefit from these superb strategies. if I didn't get this right, perhaps somebody at Autodesk could answer some very important questions asked by Arvid (they went unnoticed I guess): "Maurice, could you explain this, either XSI was supposed to be part of the now failed project Skyline - or it was never meant to be kept alive, but only bought up for its resources to then be moved into project Skyline and other parts of AD M&E. Which one is it? Follow-up question, if it was the first option, how come XSI was never heavily marketed anywhere for this purpose? If it was the second, would you agree that you were not completely open with your intentions 5 years ago?"
