Kevin, Poser now resides in the hands of Curious Labs (www.curiouslabs.com). The three top people for CL are three of the key players from when MC had control of Poser, Larry Weinberg (Poser's creator), Steve Cooper (Product Manager), and Seth Ahrens (Programming Team)... So as you can see, it's in very capable hands. As for a release date... I'm sure it's still a ways off. It wasn't very long ago when CL took over, and they've got plenty of other things to do as well (starting a new company). Advancements... well, I haven't recieved a reply directly from Larry yet... but I've contacted him with information on a technique Charles Taylor ("nerd") and myself have discovered (and still looking for more) - Enhanced Morph Control (EMC) via Joint Controlled Morphs (JCM), Partial Body Morphs (PBM) and Conforming Morphs (CM). It would be a great additon :)... -Rob
