I did do other things than the fx tree. I was the user interface senior, then team leader,  and later the development manager of the product.  I'll probably retire someday and make an open-source compositor/painter nobody will use, just for the satisfaction to complete that chapter of my lif. Because it does feel unfinished and that's annoying.

Agreed, F Autodesk and everyone that shut down XSI. XSI made work, a big part of my life, enjoyable.
The only reason I’d use Maya is because Jonas has something like ICE going inside of it. 
I went back to Houdini long ago.
Luc-Eric, thank you for FXtree that was an awesome and under appreciated part of XSI I used frequently.

Which is why you don't throw people's stuff in the garbage.  New software takes a long time to master, I got physically sick trying to go back to Maya.  Thanks for nothing
