Adios, Pranav, glad you were able to join us. Good luck in your new position (hope you have one!)
I agree, it's clear the market is dramatically reduced. Just curious, compared to a couple of years ago, where do people think it is? 30% of what it was? 10%? 60%? Where do you think it will be in two years?
Specifically the Director/Lingo market. It's clear the Flash market is much stronger.

Hello Listers, This week will be my last here at Learnet. And I'll probably be headed out of multimedia development too after this. Since this list has helped a lot during my tenure here, I figured a quick goodbye would be in order.
As an aside, I'd like to chip in with a quick comment on what seems to be the apparent death of Director development. Two of Learnet's most recent projects have been done entirely in Flash. The ones in queue are also being planned with Flash as the primary development tool And with managements decision to upgrade all F5 licenses to MX, it seems Director is going to be relegated to the sidelines after all.
What really hits as a surprise is that the next developer to fill my seat is not expected to know Director much - just a passing knowledge of the tool, to handle legacy projects. They're not even scrutinizing Director developers from the resume database. I guess it's time to move on - the sleek new model has overtaken the lumbering vintage. And time ticks on...
Thanks to everyone who's chipped in with comments, guidance, appreciation & lots of free code. I've had a ball here.
