[Framers] XML Author - where has it gone?

[Rick Quatro]

The problem with XML Author was that it was priced too high. It should have
been $100 at the most; better at $50 or even free. It would have been a good
"feeder" product for the full FrameMaker product. I don't remember the
price, but I think it was around $400, which was too high for what was
basically an XML editor.

Subject: [Framers] XML Author - where has it gone?

I try to update my website concerning the History of FrameMaker and discover
the
following:

- In FM-13 (2015) XML Author could be selected as interface flavour
  (similar to FrameMaker or Structured FrameMaker).
- In FM-14 (2017) and FM-15 (2019) this option does not exist.
- On https://www.adobe.com/search.html#q=xml%20author provides only
  results for the 2015 release.
- "XML Documentation for Adobe Experience Manager" seems to be a new
  product, but IMHO this is not a successor of XML Author, since the
  web page tells about a component content management system (CCMS).

So where has XML Author gone?
