Maya PLE will be returned
Posted from 3dworld magazine website. “Late last year, Autodesk released a 30-day trial version of Maya 2009 and removed the free Personal Learning Edition, which enables you to use Maya without a time limit while imposing other restrictions, including adding a watermark to renders, from its website.
Maya PLE?s disappearance has been a hot potato since then: 3D World, among other venues, has received emails and forum posts protesting the move.
We?ve now received word via one of Autodesk?s PR reps that the removal of Maya PLE was a mistake made when the 30-day trial was posted, and that it should be re-appearing on the Autodesk website soon. Good news all round.”
Woww!! Good to see the PLE again.
