Cutter, I would not agree with this as a blanket statement. There is still a large amount of cfml code in use - and it will remain in use for a *long* time. The areas targeted for rewrite have been for reasons other than scripting language. The unprecendented success and growth of MySpace.com has created numerous challenges - challenges that would test *any* architecture. The scripting language itself is but one single piece of the overall .NET architecture at MySpace.
