Unhappy with Navisworks Acquisition:
Architectural Record

Nadine Post and Tom Sawyer of Architectural Record interview architects unhappy with Autodesk's acquisition of Navisworks: Autodesk Buying NavisWorks, But Questions Linger. Sample quote:

The thought that Autodesk could be intentionally limiting the compatibility of file formats while adding needed functionally to its software line makes professionals "nervous about BIM’s future in Autodesk's hands."

But also:

"It would be crazy for Autodesk to lock down NavisWorks’ file-format neutrality."
