Hi gang - Here is the message from Antoine as posted to E-Groups.
"Dear Dreamers*, It seems that the cat is already out of the bag!
It is time to officially reveal what is the new home of Carrara.
So, here we go: Eovia Corporation is the new home for Carrara. I
can already hear you saying: "I am very glad to know that but this
Eovia name doesn't ring a bell"! This is not surprising; Eovia Corp
is a brand new company. It has been founded in November 2000 by
former Carrara developers and managers. This company has acquired
Carrara from MetaCreations (now Viewpoint) in December 2000. So,
who are the people behind Eovia? A small group of true 3D
aficionados and, we believe, seasoned managers. All the founders
are developers or heavy users of 3D software. We all share years of
work on Ray Dream and Carrara. We think that our experience will
ensure that we understand the needs and expectations of our
customers. But this is not the only news of the day! Eovia and TGS
are contemplating to merge. And this is where things get really
exciting! TGS is the company that develops and markets the famous
Amapi. The unparalleled modeler that includes: NURBS, Meta-NURBS,
organic modeling, Coons and Gordon surfaces, filleting and many
other ultra high end modeling features. All the features that the
Dreamers have always dreamed to get without daring to ask! TGS also
brings a well-established company with strong presence in the US
and Europe. This will ensure a faster return of Carrara on the
market and greater means for Eovia. On its side Eovia brings
Carrara the successor of Ray Dream and Infini-D, the best selling
suite of 3D software with several hundred thousand users. The
result is a whole new company with an exceptional product line,
talented peoples, numerous users and a worldwide presence. To learn
more about these two news, visit our preliminary web site at:
www.eovia.com. Two press releases can be found in the Company
section of the web site. As the news has leaked many of you have
already contacted us to offer help, images for the web site,
objects, etc. The ones who know me well also know that I believe
that a strong Community of Users is as important as the Carrara
feature list. So, I can tell you that we are more than willing to
get images, tutorials, etc from our Users. The Eovia web site is
going to grow rapidly in order to become the number one place for
the Dreamers to exchange ideas, images, objects, etc. Surprisingly
;-) , many of you have also questions about when a new Carrara will
be released ! It is a bit early to give firm dates but if you read
the Message from the CEO on our web site, you will get a few hints.
More about that next week on the list. Happy rendering to all !
Antoine Clappier President and CEO, Eovia Corp.
