The description of FrameBuilder's "SGML support" by Peter Cash is a
major stunner, if it is accurate.  The Fall issue of <title>Frame
Focus</> had a lead article "Frame Joins Forces with Datalogics" which
said, among other things:

     FrameBuilder provides full, native support for Standard
     Generalized Markup Language (SGML), a widely adopted ISO
     standard for document interchange.

Nobody doubts that Datalogics does "real" SGML, I assume, but the
truth about (current, projected) FrameBuilder deserves to be
clarified immediately.

Assuming that Frame technical support personnel are tuned to this
channel: may we hear a direct and specific reply to the points
made in Peter Cash's recent posting?  If Frame tech support will
not reply, than can we hear from others who currrently have
FrameBuilder in hand, and who have studied the specifics of its
"SGML support."

I thought that "full, native support for SGML" would mean a true
SGML editor that would read any SGML DTD + document instance and
get right to work.
