FrameMaker was originally not intended to be bundled with the system, and the version on the 0.9 disk is more for demo purposes. FrameMaker will be available as a commercial product when it's ready. Nothing else on the 0.9 disk is scheduled to break; programs like WriteNow, Mathematica, and the development environment are all bundled with the system and will remain that way in 1.0.
