Interesting ... I'll take a wait and see attitude

Me too.

Right now, Autodesk can't even maintain compatibility between successive versions of Civil-3D, and that's not even considering compatibility with other Autodesk products like Revit.  But hopefully, it will make it at least marginally easier to work with the Bentley users.

With the industry move to 3D and BIM, both Autodesk and Bentley are looking at the 'Big Dogs' <Intergraph, Aveva, Tekla> starting taking market share in the plant design arena, collaboration may be a strategy to protect what they have.  I'm real curious what will happen with Bentley and PDS in the next few years.
