"" Randy... Please give the product management and product development people at Autodesk a little credit, and a little respect. ""
Oh I do. But I'm also aware, based on their past performance, that they will bow to perceived user pressure. A few squeaky wheels will gain attention and snowball into a wider-based rant than is justifiable, and Autodesk will response to quell the "perception". They've done it several times over the years.

Now this is interesting. Where was this grand advice when Jorge was posting his rants about what Autodesk needs to do with DWG? Where was this grand advice when Uncle FUD was posting his whine? Where was this grand advice for the ODA supporters that bang the open DWG drum? I guess this would be grand advice for anyone that thinks Autodesk ought to do something differently?
Can you say "hysterically hypocritical"? You know Evan, a personal attack is a personal attack.

I'd love to work for Autodesk. Maybe when I retire and don't mind working for a lot less money, I'll apply.
But hey, that's just me.
