I just wanted to poke my head in to mention that I have been following this thread listening to the concerns that are mentioned (hopefully it wont get handed back to me). As Jenx mentioned it was not uncommon for me to post over hear in the past. With the management change at DAZ I am now freed up to spend more of my time communicating with and listening to customers. That is something I enjoy 100x more than dealing with demanding board members, cash flow mgt. etc. I am excited about the management change because now I can do more of what I love.

To borrow again from Monte Python (like Randy did) Randy reminds me of the brave knight who looses an arm and still and calls it a minor flesh wound. What I mean by that is although Genesis has been successful from a financial perspective as he suggested, the fact that it does not work in Poser does hurt. It hurts because it is polarizing the community and that is not good for anyone. People are spending more time arguing rather than enjoying creating art. I will say that finding a way to get people access to Genesis (or at least V5) in Poser is at the top of my list of priorities figure out how to get done. The order it very tall but definitely something we see as very important.

In hearing the concerns around the installers etc. I will see if there are ways to will serve a broader group of people with the way we implement it. I will make sure that your concerns are voiced clearly to the engineering team so they can see if there are solutions.

Since Randy is leading this, I will let him continue to respond as he as been but I want to let you know that I am taking note of concerns expressed here. I do also want to apologize for the numberous mistakes we have made with people individually and collective and I hope that we can improve on those things in the future (I commit to do what I can to change things for the better).

Sincerely,

Dan Farr
