Please continue to so; every person in our industry needs to be interested, and will benefit, in knowing others’ points of view, even if opposed to them.

As for being treated as “press”, well look at the recent access to Autodesk’s Bass and Kross. Both these guys are as accessible as Fort Knox and as useless as a chopstick in soup to users with a grievance; but you got an interview and to publish their comments – I guess that is what ‘the press’ does!

It is also why publications like Cadalyst have fallen by the wayside – too focused on ‘sugar coating’ our industry; being glorified sales brochures instead of being a balance industry information sources.
