Don't forget the t-shirt hanging in my closet... "The #1 CFMX Website is Powered by BlueDragon"
The seem to have forgotten the asterisk with the kinda, sorta, patially, maybe someday all the way note at the bottom. :) The skirmish does seem to come down to matter of marketing vs reality...with reality lagging behind the image conveyed by the sales pitch. Lost in here somewhere is also the issue that CFMX was being criticized on at least one point (db drivers) without any information regarding what they did to try and resolve it beyond just leap to a different vendor. And, of course, the cowboy coder remarks are a direct result of the myspace.com presenters comments and tales of their development and (non)testing process and how the users liked it when the servers went down and the game came up. Some day marketing folks will get a clue and realize that trying to parse, spin and defend exaggerated claims after the fact doesn't work anymore. And attacking respected messengers only hurts them in the end. The politicians have ruined that for you...we're all too cynical to believe just anything thrown our way.
