April 23, 2015 at 11:11 pmthat stuff is actually out there – the account of the meeting where jobs decided the pre-logger would be X – although I think he was looking more at what became the browser and tagging system. but that account is real – an apple person from the time spoke about it. Jobs made a crazy amount of instant taste calls. If that meeting had gone differently presumably nothing would be as it is.

Because it’s been 4 years. Apple has been very good about delivering those things they promised to deliver. They never promised to deliver Roles based audio organization, they never promised to deliver round tripping to Motion. At what point do you say, well that’s it then, I guess it is what it is?

Agreed. Whether you like X or not, Randy deserves a huge round of applause for an amazing career. The dude has more than earned it.

And as told to me by people who worked directly with him briefly, he is a hands-on coder, not just a concept guy.

April 24, 2015 at 12:34 amDon’t think so Herb.
At the Vegas NAB FCP X Guru Gathering among the FCPX dev team members who came, the most consistent refrain was “so what features would you like to see in X?
Not the question you keep asking if you consider the software “done.”
