Raf, I thought the same thing when I read the comment about the cloud
stuff. A even winced a little. That sounds an awful lot like a
developer/publisher wanting to dictate workflow because they want to be
seen as anticipating our needs, Steve Jobs-style.

The mentions of the cloud for MnE as a success factor like it might
have been or become in CAD are, presently, scaring the living daylight
out of me a lot more than Maya's obvious deficiencies ever might.
I can deal with the latter, the former however would be a legal
impossibility to deal with, and there's only that many times one can
reboot a pipeline to new software in a few years.
Back then Bass came up with this massive cloud testicle fondling, but
Petit was quick in addressing it and stating that MnE wouldn't fall
under the same priorities, though he seemed to have been gone largely
unacknowledged by Bass at the times it's true that nothing happened
outside the CAD front for the years following. I wonder how much
longer that will go on for and what the current management (Bradshaw
and Stevens I'd guess? Maybe the PMs and PM senior management) thinks
of it.

Well my response is that we will teach maya while its still an
industry standard. We will re-evaluate in 2 years time. The
noises coming out of people in my country is that most are
moving to a modo / zbrush / houdini pipeline while continuing
to use SI as much as possible.
For my personal stuff I am already on the Modo ship and thanks
to Jordi's excellent pdfs dipping my feet into Houdini as well.
Personally I will not give Autodesk any more money.
Kind regards
Angus
