Other people from Adobe would be very, very reluctant to actually post here. People from companies end up getting a lot of grief here. I know of several people who have quit posting because of that. Can you imagine the grief Adobe would get regarding CC subscriptions vs perpetual licenses.
Ya think? Really: we're just a bunch of pussycats.
Seriously, as I'm sure you are well aware, there's a wide gulf between developers ("software engineering," or whatever we're calling it these days) and product managers (marketers, which in some circles has always been a pejorative, but they're usually the people who call the shots).
I've only dealt with Adobe as an end-user—both enterprise and, currently, personal—but my experience with many other software manufacturers is that the techies like to talk about what they are doing and the product managers prefer that the developers keep their blinkin' mouths shut. As one fairly senior software executive said to me more years ago than I prefer to admit, "the developers would give away the store if we let them" ... meaning that, because they're proud of the work they're doing, they would say more than corporate management would like. There is also a concern about "giving away futures," or revealing product plans that might or might not come to fruition.
That's where trusted intermediaries like you, Michael and Kevin (also Andrew Rodney?) can be useful. If you confine yourselves to asking questions about technical issues, I suspect even the marketing people will be comfortable with what the techies have to say.
I gather you have already interviewed Eric Chan again for your LR6 video. I hope Thomas Knoll is also willing to talk to you publicly. Please don't ask any questions about licensing arrangements. If you can get the developers to tell us a little more about what's going on "under the hood," it will be time well spent. As far as I'm concerned, the commercial arrangements are rather boring: they don't tell me anything about the best way to process my pictures.
