Release Date for FrameMaker 8?

[Diana Stock]

I thought I read sometime ago within the list, that Adobe had a 'Wish
List' somewhere to post requests? Is there really such a site? I would
love to suggest ideas to incorporate Flash with
FrameMaker.(ie,FlashPaper retaining Frame hyperlinks like it does for
Microsoft doc files)

Alan,

I agree with you, but the person is in the Adobe dev dept. and I'd
expect that they would have a pretty good idea about rel dates.  But as
you say, who knows?  We'll just have to wait and see.

Either way, what I have now does the job I need to do.  Well, almost.
I'd definitely like to see some better input filters.  But that's a
different topic.

Diane

Given Adobe's historical 18-month release cycle, I would be surprised to
see a new FrameMaker release within a couple of months. (I believe
FrameMaker 7.2 shipped in September 2005). Pleasantly surprised, of
course.

The Creative Suite is somewhat closer to the end of an 18 month cycle
(April 2005), and Acrobat 7 has been out even longer. Given the
propensity of even internal Adobe folks to confuse products like
"PageMaker" and "FrameMaker", I might speculate that the source was
mis-informed. Only Adobe knows for certain, however.
