When Adobe acquired Macromedia last year, software pundits were doubtful if Macromedia Director would be able to survive the merger. Some even predicted that Adobe would shift the important features of Director to Macromedia Flash and abandon any future development of Macromedia Director.But there's some good news for the Macromedia Director Community - Both Director software and the Shockwave Player are very much alive and growing. This was communicated by Adobe's Product Manager for Director and the Shockwave Player, Tom Higgins.
According to Tom, the next major release of Director will be available in the first half of 2007. Macromedia Director will be updated to run natively on Intel-based Macintosh computers and on the Windows Vista operating system.
The community has finally some news to cheer about.
