What I really need is a kit from Adobe. The biggest issue with CF is its reputation. There are too many blogs, etc. out there that say CF is a dying technology... even though they are false the lies persist. An IT director to whom we are trying to sell a CF site does his research and finds this information - he does not want to get caught up investing in a dead-end technology.
It seems to me Adobe would benefit greatly by providing a kit that would help developers back-up the claim that CF is a solid technology with a sound future. What we need are some solid statistics to: - Compare capabilities to other technologies - Illustrate an ROI equal to or superior to other technologies - Document current use on enterprise level systems (i.e., a reliable client list) - Demonstrate a solid investment from Adobe and complete commitment to a future path Adobe has done its work to sell CF to the developer. What they also need to do is the work to help back-up the developer when they are reselling CF solutions. They are a bit lacking in partner/reseller support. Robert B.
