WHOA!!!

A combination of Go Live and Dreamweaver could be pretty tight.

I hope this is a good thing for you Harm!

Do they actually say that? Even if they do I can see them adding Go Live features to Dreamweaver.

Macromedia will give up Freehand and Fireworks.
Adobe will give up GoLive.

Remaining Macromedia products will become Adobe products:
Adobe Flash
Adobe Dreamweaver

Illustrator and Photoshop will have beefed up "export to swf" features.

Not much else will change.

Actually, nothing like that has ever been mentioned in any of our press releases, nor could they be due to anti-trust things.

I'm in San Francisco right now at a company meeting (planned way before I knew about the news, I found out with the rest of you). In the end, it's all good.
