Why worry?

It has been a forgone conclusion that Adobe would abandon FrameMaker, almost as soon as they bought Frame Technology. They never understood what the program was, why it was. They never marketed it. So of course they had diminishing returns on their investment.

Stupid decisions always turn out poorly.

Adobe is not immune to that. Our problem is that we like the program.

Someone else will move to fill the gap. Eventually. Unless the great unwashed illiterai decide the use Microsoft Word for everything. It can do everything can't it? Why else would Microsoft sell it?
