Are you endorsing a program users' boycott? No more upgrades for all complainers! I'll bet Equis/Reuters doesn't capture even 20% of the data vendor market (before buyout) vs. program sales share. This data format control is their sole leverage position to improve in that regard. Vocal users have spoken about this continually and what's come of it. Are they listening -- do they care? We've all learned the work-arounds with significant operational inconveniences as Sean points out. How would you suggest speaking to this specifically - a letter writing campaign? You should clearly see the market forces at play here and I think without a price viable alternative program (not GET, unfortunately) to take market share away from their program sales we're stucked (with an "F"). How's your programming skills for a new startup -- mine stink. Come on, Sean - ditch the good life at Cisco and lets get cracking on a real project.
