Re: What next for Mif2Go?
My first request -- and the one I'd pay more money for -- would be the Go2MIF interface, to import Word and other file formats cleanly into Frame. My second would be to improve the existing user interface so things are easier to set up and check, maybe with a logging facility. Cheers, and thanks for making a great product, Jeremy!

RE: What next for Mif2Go?
Hi Jeremy, I have been asking for Go2Mif for a lng time and I would REALLY love to see that one. Adding Logging and Reporting to that would make one heckuva package. So you have my vote on these for sure. I think you could name your price and we'd buy it.

Jeremy H. Griffith: So we're asking *you*. What do you want that we don't already do? Answer on-list or off, as you please; we figure it's on-topic for FrameMaker users in general, but if others don't think so, we can move it off list. I know (believe, anyway) that FM finds its natural home in the technical communication community, and I've used it that way -- a lot -- in the past. But now I use it for academic writing. My chief motivation in obtaining Mif2Go has nothing to do with generating help or HTML files; I use it to interface with EndNote, because EndNote needs nice clean RTF. I can't guess at how many other users, or how many other listers, have similar needs. But I wonder whether anyone else in the same boat as me has thought about whether Mif2Go could provide a tighter EndNote interface. (Don't ask me for details; I've no idea!)
