Then, eventually, FrameMaker will become a 2nd class citizen in the long document field. Or will it... ?

FM7 has an order of magnitude more support for XML and structured authoring than InDesign. Adding real structure to InDesign as a plug-in was seen as challenging during the last round of discussions we had.

I'm interested in pragmatic feedback from anyone on this list that has used both Frame and InDesign. I have my own opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of each product, would like to hear yours.

Thanks.
