I'm curious about one thing (well, more than just one; but one thing in the current context...): 
Has Adobe ever actually said that they use FrameMaker produce the FrameMaker documentation? 

I know that Microsoft has never made any such statement about the MS Word documentation, and for years there have been two persistent rumors about this; one is that they use a proprietary in-house tool or system, and another is that they use FrameMaker.
