Subject: Re: Rumors from Max... 

Ok, I've had a few vodka tonics so you'll have to excuse me if I don't make
much sense...

"Rumor is, Adobe might release CF to the open source community..."

>From what I have seen that's just nuts - at one of birds of a feather
sessions at MAX, a guy happened to mention that he decompile coldfusion much
to the dismay of some of the cf engineers. One of the comments from the
engineers was something to the effect "if you have to look at the source
code, then we are not doing our job". Yes you can get PHP or .net free, but
you know what - those suck. They don't totally blow, and they have their
place for sure, but the power you get with CF ... which becomes a J2EE
application ... it's RAD. Nothing has touched it yet.

...Net sucks, let's be honest - it's lame for desktop programmers and it's
lame for web developers for different reasons. It totally misses the mark
from both sides. PHP is like perl but weirder. Sure it's free, and if you
need it it'll do the job, but what frame of reference are new coders coming
from? All that perl or C code they've been writing?

All that babble aside, when I was in newton a while ago, I had the fortune
of hanging out with Forta - from our conversation I can tell you CF is
pretty popular in a lot of areas that never make the headlines - it provides
a good revenue stream for MM. Why would they just let that go? The product
is strong and in a lot of places you might not even consider.

If anything I hope they open source fireworks... please don't let that one
die in the shadow of photoshop send me the code I'll keep it up :)

apologies for my drunken ramblings...
