OpenBIM is the New Black, apparently

[shorter]

As predicted, suddenly the great autodesk ignorati has woken up to openBIM and are claiming it as their own.  I have seen a number of posts on linkedin recently where self-styled bim-washers are proclaiming openBIM as the new black, like it's only just been invented, despite the UK government and most of Europe mandating open file exchange formats since at least 2016.

 

So, OpenBIM is "The future of Collaboration'?  Really?  If the content of this post is to be believed just look at what we have all been missing out on!  Who wouldn't want to open their BIM after reading this?

Still, I suppose if we let them think it's new and that they are at the vanguard they might actually engage with it as we have for the last decade or so.
