See that's the problem. Everyone is more than happy to jump on the band wagon *after* there is a mature solution which is worth their time. However, the chicken precedes the egg here, and the chicken is a community of developers willing to put in months (or years) of work to get a product to that point. I fear our community doesn't have enough of those people willing to roll up their Java/.NET sleeves and make open source CF really fly. I sure hope I'm wrong-- I really do; but I think "Successful Open Sourced CF" is a utopia many of us long for, but few of us would actually get dirty for.

Others seemed to be either in early stages or have started charging and at that point weren't worth the trouble switching to IMHO. A free CFML engine that's fairly compatible with Adobe's engine would be a great thing IMHO. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:301071 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
