Leendert,
Some of us are transitioning to Max / Maya and need the resources being
discussed. For the time being I'm assuming things are pretty much a mess
across the board with the transition at every company using Softimage
and at AD. I don't care at this point how well this has been planned or
organized. The fact is, Jill has come out to tell you they are working
on it. She can't give you definite answers when she may not have them.
This is out of her control and thus there is nothing more to discuss.
We just have to wait for when they can give us the information. We don't
need to move quickly. We still have at the very least 2 years to
transition (more in fact since we can sit on our subscription with
Softimage continually) so there isn't a super rush. We have a bunch of
(50+ at least) people at work here that need the training material but
we're not in a panic rush. I think many others are in the same boat.
It's in my opinion that we all need to take a step back, take a few
breaths, and not try to pick apart everything that is being said to us
at this point. However deserving you think it is, it is what it is and
there isn't much we can do about it. Her reply is at least being honest
of where things stand. Things aren't figured out yet. Bottom line.
Best,
Eric T.

But that's an admittedly small part of the problem, isn't it? Autodesk
expects people to transition to Max/Maya, deciding rather quickly
between the two and obviously AD wants people to shy away from the
competition, but cannot even commit itself clearly to some additional
training material. While understandable on a rational level, it feels
wrong...
