That is doubtful. The way I remember it, XSI was meant to replace MAX one day because at the time MAX was really in shambles and seemed to have unresolvable issues that didn't allow it to evolve as would have been necessary. As it turned out, AD turned the tide and changed their plans. Anyway, there have long been rumours that they were heavily reworking Maya down to the underlying nodal architecture and if you add 1 and 1 together, that may be happening now with not only Naiad/Bifröst, but on a more general level by inheriting some of what ICE was in XSI. In this scenario it would only be logical to let go of one redundant program...

People said that is why AD originally bought SI - to keep it from Adobe.
