As you may have seen – including over at Shaan’s blog – the 2012 family of our products has now been announced.

Stephen Preston, our DevTech Americas Manager, has recorded a DevTV session on the new APIs in AutoCAD 2012. This material was presented during our recent Developer Days tour, attended by ADN members around the world.
