Cool--you guys are good! Then it should only take you another day to implement abstract CFCs and CFC interfaces (both fully supported--not open source projects--in BD 7.0). And adding support for the "null" keyword and IsNull function (more BD 7.0 features) could probably be done before lunch; after lunch you can add the onClientStart and onMissingTemplate handlers to Application.cfc (yet more BD 7.0 enhancements). Maybe someone else could hack out the CFIMAGE and CFIMAP tags (currently in BD 6.2.1) over the weekend? Since you only have to worry about implementing in Java (and not both Java and .NET, like BD), it shouldn't be too hard.
