I don't think this comes as a huge surprise to many. There were big hopes for Fireworks after the buyout that never materialised, and while it has seen steady — albeit minor —iteration since, it never ended up inheriting the Photoshop features that I for one hoped it would. In stark contrast to PS, FW is one of a select few pieces of Adobe creative software that always 'just worked' as I expected. It is a remarkably intuitive tool for many tasks, and it'll be a shame to see it go.
