Matt, good points. I just got back from the 2003 Fusebox conference in Las Vegas. Charlie Areheart (whom I have infinite respect for) was presenting for Blue Dragon and emphasized their goals to bring Blue Dragon into offering the same facilities/tags as CFMX. I hope this really turns out to be a good thing for CF.

That is certainly a valid criticism. Although, New Atlanta has stated many times that they aren't trying to compete with Macromedia for customers, but go after customers that Macromedia is about to lose because of platform standardization. In that regard, they don't need to support CFMX tags since their customers only want pre-CFMX CFML applications to work. Obviously, if they want to target CFML developers at large then they are going to need to be compatible with CFMX. -Matt On Tuesday, September 2, 2003, at 01:10 AM, Mike Brunt wrote: > One major consideration re Blue Dragon, they still do not support all > CF > Tags.
