What are the anticipated changes? Need to justify with higher ups ...

All beta projects are confidential and covered by Non-Disclosure Agreement. You will need to sign up and agree to the NDA before you can see the proposed changes. Nothing can be discussed publicly until the final product is released due to the fact Autodesk is a publicly-traded company and we're prohibited by federal law from discussing future functionality (which may or may not ever be released).

Honestly, I wish Autodesk would just stabilize MEP 2010 first...if we're not crashing in this office we're recovering files from crashing or saving to protect from the invetible crash. 64-bit or 32-bit...same deal. I want to love this software...We are having REAL considerations of going back to 2008 32bit for just for stability... We just bought brand new workstations w/12GB RAM but can't keep more than a drawing or two on the screen at any given time because of the time it takes to recover them all WHEN it crashes (yes they're ISV certified)..

Now here comes 2011...great...how about allocating resources towards another service pack for 2010?

Here's hoping that the U.K. content becomes U.K. content and not U.S. content renamed and that the broken bits in 2010 are fixed.
Perhaps we might even get a few more pretty icons for our subscription money.

Which UK content are you having issues with? the Piping content is based on UK standards and was built using UK standards.
Can you provide more examples of what you need?

Thank you,
