Hello-

I got pointed to this rant/parody site called the Sludge Report that has a
mention of a new product from Macromedia.  Anyone know if this is real or a
joke?

Here's a snip from one of the articles:

"SAN FRANCISCO, CA--The hardcore, the faithful, and a few dozen guys on
worker's comp staked out their positions on the sidewalk in front of the
San Francisco headquarters of Macromedia this morning.

	The reason: each hopeful wants to be the first to get a look at the
company's newest release rumored to be in Alpha, which sources say may be
unveiled in the next few weeks. The Sludge Report first picked up the story
when, unbeknownst at the time, I stumbled upon a warez [(w=E2r-z) i.e.
illegal software trading, often beta and other pre-release programs]
channel where rumors, speculation, and ultimately a great deal of
frustration was voiced by those within the group eager to learn about the
app and to get their hands on an early release."

Anyway, the site's pretty funny - it's at http://www.sludgereport.com if
you want to take a look for yourself.

Thanks,
Phil
