I guess I could sort of buy this, but I would still think of this as
"CF tags exposed as services" in the case of their exposure as remote
services.  I would also consider calling them in CFSCRIPT as calling
them as objects, not really as CFCs.

I tend to look at CFCs as code a developer writes.  CF9 exposing some
tags as services or objects are just that, exposure as services and
objects.  It doesn't *make* them CFCs, though they do behave in
similar ways to CFCs.

At the end of the day though, I could care less what people call them.
 I would probably not call them CFCs myself.
