I guess it's good our software of choice can't be threatened anymore.

Exactly my point.   If you want to say Autodesk is trying to send the message Maya is the only option in town, then you have a point, but that’s not surprising as that’s the picture most corporate marketing campaigns try to paint regardless of product or industry.  Whether they do it in good taste is another matter. All I want to say is that saying "Open" does not seem to have any meaning.
