Costas, Not that you care, others might - the following email is from one of the founders of Fusebox, Steve Nelson.
His message is in regards to the '6174' counter on the FB site. Steve says, "That's just the number of people that have created accounts on Fusebox.org. Since there isn't much of an incentive to create accounts, that number is probably pretty low. The point of it is that people ARE standardizing on the free Fusebox framework and that number grows every day. Hell, it's 6191 right now. A friend of mine once told me: "You know you're famous when people start suing you". I wouldn't worry too much about people bashing Fusebox. Bad press is still press. In the four years I've been doing this, I've found that people that bash Fusebox tend to bash everything anyway. Very few of them have looked at Fusebox very closely. Tell this guy to join in the Fusebox community and voice his concerns on the Fusebox list. The Fusebox community listens to ideas, if they're good ones, we add them into the spec. Nothing will get changed by voicing concerns on cf-talk." - Steve Nelson Joseph DeVore VeloxWeb Technologies -----Original Message----- From: Costas Piliotis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 19, 2001 3:07 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Fusebox - opinions? Here's a quote from fusebox.org: Fusebox is a FREE web application standard in use by 6174 people from around the world 6174. Around the world. Hmmm... I know there's 100 or so active cfug members in Vancouver, BC. Given the amount of metropolitan areas in US and Canada, not to mention parts of Europe, I'd think that number is kinda small... -----Original Message----- From: Zac Belado [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 19, 2001 2:26 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Fusebox - opinions? > I think the difference is that there is a good chance that an outside > contractor might already know Fusebox.

I hear people mention that developers or contractors will be familiar with it but has anyone ever done any sort of polling to determine this? If not its mostly just an anecdotal comment isn't it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
