I think that Adobe Reader should get some more little functions. Maybe extracted from Adobe Acrobat. I have to work everyday with this "good job" application. There are so many people who need to work everyday with this freeware tool produced by adobe, but i think that there are some missing parts which should be included in the Reader. At the very least, Adobe should create a small business solution for smaller companys. For example an adobe Acrobat light edition which is affordable for most people.

I gave up using it when I discovered standards as it just makes things more complicated.

Where can we apply for that? Hand Coding is still the cherry on the top of a good code. Including HomeSite is a good idea. Where can we apply for that?

I agree with may others sentiments on here but I think that maybe we haven't all been using the same DW? I've been teaching DW CS3 for a year now and its nothing but great for creating valid markup with very little necessity to hand code (which I have done since 1998). So I am not sure where the disconnect is. Maybe its in user training? Maybe folks just don't know the power thats already built into DW? This is terrific news!

what use are webstandards when you can sit there with standards compliant
browser, fast and capable hardware and software that makes it work, and
still be unable to view a large proportion of the available content that’s out there,
with many sites being completely unusable ?
am I assuming too much when I assume “open” and “accessible”
when the term “web standards” is mentioned ?
this is very much on-topic for this announcement.
any insight or comments gratefully received.

Homesite 5 (not the + version) needs to be brought back...i use it in Vista x64 it craps out a few times in a day. VS2005 or 2008 don't cut the formatting for classic ASP. Please please please make this an agenda....hope Jeff is still on the team... Long live Homesite i guess i could use DW and only code view...but it's a bit clunky. Many thanks jboy Nice to see it’s still rolling on, but let’s get a few things clear..

As others have commented there are some issues that need to be addressed, but for the most part I am happy with all of Adobe's current programs. I am not a professional designer/coder by any means but I use Dreamweaver to build up sites for my <a href="http://www.experienced-people.co.uk/5002-home-based-business-ideas/" rel="nofollow">home business</a>. While I do have to go through and clean up code here and there, I am happy with its features. Hopefully the new Adobe Task Force will be able to take care of some of these issues and create an all around better software. This should be a really good move for Adobe.
