[Framers] Nostalgia - was Re: FrameMaker 2015

[Craig Ede]

Nostalgia can cause trouble. I recently was in an interview with a multinational Health Care company in the Milwaukee/Waukesha area and referred to 'tagging' paragraphs in unstructured FrameMaker. The interviewer was nonplussed and corrected me, saying unstructured FrameMaker was not like XML. Well, it isn't. But tagging was how the process was described. But I believe he saw that use of the terminology as a slip in my understanding of the two faces of FrameMaker, unstructured and structured, both of which had importance for this particular job.

Didn't get that contract. Probable a multiplicity of factors, but this tagging thing didn't help.
