Thank you for your response Maurice.
Another question.  Are you still going to include Toxic after 2 years if I am 
new customer?  fe.  If I open a new studio and I want to buy brand new seats of 
Maya, MAX?

The bundle is a transition bundle therefore it is only for those who already 
have Softimage to get access to Maya or 3s Max for free
Existing customers can also purchase new seats to increase capacity if they 
need to
Softimage is discontinued from sale because we would prefer for anyone starting 
a career or a business not to do so on a product we are no longer developing. 
However if you really want it there is an option: Softimage will be in the 
Ultimate Suite for 2 more years, If you are a student with an accredited 
institution you should qualify for special discount rate too.
BTW - everything has a cost and implementing and maintaining offerings in our 
systems is not trivial

What I still don't understand is why Autodesk cannot still deliver Softimage 
last version to Max or Maya suite, bundle or whatever name it has.
I know they've saying a lot of reasons, but really none of them makes anysense 
to me.

After all we will be buying Maya, MAX seats to get Softimage.  It still means 
revenue from them for a software they are going to stop devoloping, addressing 
bugs or fixes.
Ok. Don't sell Softimage seats perse, but package Softimage like Toxic.  Let 
the user decide what tool he wants to work with.  Just keep the Send to 
Softimage button regardless of the Maya version.
This is no additional cost to Autodesk.

Is this too much to ask?

So for what I understood you can buy your first license only till the 28th then 
after this you are able to purchase more.
If you have no licenses after this date you wont be able to purchase Softimage 
anymore... :(
So I would suggest you get in touch with a retailer asap, he will be able to 
confirm this info obviously

Hi Maurice,
Where can I have more info about this ? I was contemplating the possibility to 
buy a few licenses in the near future before the EOL announcement because I 
will most probably have some SI projects on my own and I don't have a 
commercial license right now (I work with my current employer license) and may 
need extra hands later, so If I buy the current version would I be able to 
purchase a few more seats later? Or am I too late for this?

Thanks

Martin
