I've been looking back at the Omni site via the Wayback Machine, and saw that Omni was responsible for the NextStep port of FrameMaker.

There is a distinct FrameMaker-shaped hole in the MacOS X universe right about now. Have you guys considered trying to get Adobe to allow you to do a Mac port?

I used to really miss Framemaker on the Mac. It was the one thing I kept a Windows laptop around to use after OS X hit town.

But these days I can't get too excited about it. My needs for a super sophisticated document processor are going down (as the Web become domininant), while at the same time Pages has come out and has been getting better. My main problem with Pages is its performance/speed.

But I still miss Framemaker tables ... although Pages tables are pretty good -- if they would only not be so slow.

We've considered it in the past, but at this point it wouldn't really make sense for us to spend time working on anyone else's products—we already have our hands full with our own!
