Thanks very much for all your efforts helping put this together! I for one
appreciate it.

I hope Adobe really put some resources behind the next version and get
Director back on track.

Best regards

Richard Smith

Thanks Richard,

Currently, 104 have started the survey, but only 75 have completed it to
section 4. In section 1 and 2, I have 104 responses. In section 3, question 1,
I have 78. The rest of section 3 has lower responses.

I'd be very happy with 500 responses. But for now, want to get over 200 at
least. So keep them coming people

regards
Dean
