You are not the only person that is disappointed in the change of direction. BMC has reassured on the BMC Communities, even after the Innovation Suite split, that they are committed to continuing to move AR System forward as a (development) platform. Hopefully they have some big surprises for us because I am not seeing it. Much of the last few years has been "use Smart IT if you want modern interface" and "we are not going to implement Dev Studio enhancements because that is not where our focus is" (some of that may have been inferred based on actions, lack of action and tone of interactions with customers). Maybe somebody that is going to T3 will report back some wonderful news?
