I was confused when AD shut down XSI. I presumed there'd be an accelerated
cannibalism of the good bits of XSI and to some extent their has been. The
UI's had an overhaul and they got shrinkwrap and contour stretch UV mapping
so I don't know what everybody's complaining about... :)

I think the only way we get back to an all in one DCC Maya alternative is
by the competitors moving out from their core feature set. At the time of
XSI's demise, Houdini was great for FX and Rendering, Modo was great for
Modelling and Rendering but they weren't viable for a full pipeline
alternative. They're both expanding their feature set and getting closer
and that seems the best hope.

Hypothetically, Blender's always intrigued me. If a big enough place took
it on spent the money they would otherwise use on licensing and support on
internal development, I wonder whether Blender could be a solid enough
alternative. As I understand it, the open-source thing is the main barrier
to this, having to give up proprietary work that may be under NDA.
