But I don't see any reason why competing engines can't further growth in the "official" engine. A perfect case is Macromedia and Adobe's competition in the WYSIWYG editor (Dreamweaver vs Go-Live) or even better in the image editor (Fireworks vs Imageready).
Adobe and Macromedia ALWAYS leapfrogged each other in features until of course Adobe bought MM. There's no reason why Adobe can't implement features from other engines. -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 5:03 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting? Indeed, and you always will as in all reality it will be Adobe who define the CFML language (albeit not official") and any competing engine will always be behind that set. Of course there are times when new systems provide additional functionality but any one expecting CFML will expect the the base minimum which ColdFusion provides I would think.

Flash Remoting is supported by Railo 1.0. But only the calls to .cfm files. A AMF Filter is included. Railo 1.1 Event gateways: we won't implement this feature yet. We need to leave arguments for others :-) Recordsets from stored procedures: In 1.0 it is possible to call stored procedures in <cfquery>. Railo 1.1 will support <cfstoredproc*> What about the others? struct(), array(), query(), arrayfind(), dump(), <cfdump eval="">, <cfadmin> Server and web administrator? I know we still have work to do. But we will...
