Now OT, I suppose. RE: Adobe pricing policies

[Maxwell Hoffmann]

Mike,

You are correct. That was my post. The point I was making was that if you subscribe for 2 years (no SW maintenance fees required) you are bound to get another release.

Regardless of how much someone may "just not like" FrameMaker 12, it would be difficult to accept this as a minor release. Product development has speeded up addition of time-saving features over what we experienced 7-9 years ago.

I don't have the original message handy, but I think the original poster was saying that at least the last three FrameMaker releases have been on an 18-month cycle. We get a new version of FM every year and a half. 
This was previously the case with Creative Suite software, too.
