Right. And where is that inconsistent with anything that was said in any of
the other references I gave? When did I or anyone at New Atlanta say the
entire MySpace web server farm has already been migrated to BD.NET? Here are
some quotes, starting with the original press release:

  "MySpace is switching to BlueDragon.NET to improve the performance and
reliability..."

  "New Atlanta has just announced that MySpace.com, the world's busiest
ColdFusion-based web site, is switching to BlueDragon.NET..."

  "At the Friday keynote session at CFUNITED-05, Peter Amiri, Director of
Technical Operations for MySpace.com, gave an informative and entertaining
presentation about the history and growth of MySpace, and the reasons why
the site is being migrated to BlueDragon.NET..."

And from Rey Bango's original post to CF-Talk:

  "In a huge coup, my boys at New Atlanta have won a MAJOR deal and are
helping MySpace.com, the fifth most heavily trafficked web site on the
Internet, make the switch from Macromedia ColdFusion 5.0 to New Atlanta's
BlueDragon for .NET"

Note the quotes, "...is switching to..." and "...is being migrated to...".
The fact is that the contract had been signed, the commitment had been made,
and the switch to BlueDragon.NET had already started at the time of our
announcement (and is continuing).

Our message has been entirely truthful and consistent from the very
beginning. There are some people who want to distort our message and
discredit MySpace and New Atlanta, and have from the very moment our
announcement was made. There's nothing I can do about that.
