As someone that is in software development and sales myself I can say that you won't HAVE any money for development UNLESS you have sales. So you absolutely need to be putting resources into both. Sure, as a developer in CF I'd prefer that the bulk of resources go to development but that's just not reasonable to expect that all of it would. If in a bad economy that means cutting back some on development, that's understandable. If Adobe feels rebranding will help increase exposure and/or interest in the product, then it certainly should be looked at. I'm dubious that it would make much difference and can't imagine after all these years having to refer to it as anything but "ColdFusion" but if it might help uptake among certain markets, I can live with that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334816 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
