Re: Future XSI versions, comments!

["Tim Leydecker" <BauerOink(at)gmx.de>]

Hi Luc-Eric,

how would you prefer to get suggestions or critics delivered?

Having a Maya backround (not neccessarily a Maya reputation)
on the highend3d lists myself and after having becoming used to
log feature requests, I find it more and more helpful to ask in a
forum first. Be it just to verify I don´t miss something obvious.

Even if this brings quite a bit of noise and may initially result in
either stirring up confusion or losing that last bit of self-respect
desperately needed sometimes...

To get serious, hands down, I find some of the modeling tools
in XSI less than optimal while other workflows implemented
are far superior to Maya. How should I best describe my
desires so you guys can make good use of it?

Cheers

tim
