Fully agree, Tom. I mean how long does Adobe think they can hold out before the other DTP tools out there simply surpass Frame, which they have already done in many areas. 

I guess time will just tell when Adobe realizes that they will have to either: 

1. Finally dig down into Frame's ancient code and create some features that are actually worth the upgrade 

2. Focus thier attention on InDesign as a Frame replacement 

3. Give up on Frame alltogether and let some other guy provide us with DTP tools (MS is a likely candidate, unless Ventura gains a strong following) 

It's unfortunate, but Adobe, just isn't showing us that they are truly, as they say, "committed to supporting the FrameMaker product."
