Hi,

Understanding that forums are very much a place where speculational theories are written, if you read through many of the forum threads on this topic - it might offer a more clear and realistic understanding. Regarding the note from Mr. Ando, I really must ask that you give a little leniency please. Mr. Ando, who has little to no experience in this forum or forums similar to the known posts on the Poser product, and definitely having a language barrier -- his personal note was intended to give personal introduction (very important in the Japanese culture). Also, Compiler, as noted in the original post from CL - there are definitely key words used to describe an acquisition. The words from Ando-san are not "canned" words, but rather his best attempt to assure you of the commitment in this process.

We would love to give all of the answers everyone wishes to know now all the way out to P7 - but as the past has shown - it causes less frustration to users and communities to be upfront and truthful - even when it is to say that a status of planning must take place.

As for Poser now, an SR4 is still planned and in development and expected out in Winter unless any significant issue comes up that is not known about now in the testing period.

e frontier has been a very customer oriented company with quality products and business structures which will remain their focus for their new business unity with CL. We will keep you updated as things progress - again with focus on actual facts rather than speculation.

With kind regards,
Katherine
