I've dedicated the last 6.5 years of my life to CF and I'm not leaving an y time soon. Do I think CF is dead? No. Do I see it with a bright future? Y es. Have I listened to what has been said and shown about Neo? Yes and so sho uld you. The very fact that you'll be able to write cheap and fast CF code an d then be able to move the result over to the hardest core java servlet engines around means that we now have an expanded business base. It means we have more options with our code and where we can use it. It means a lot. Neo is not 'only' new and improved. It's a new paradigm for CF programmers. I 'm just waiting for it to go live so I can release notes, lists and we can t alk about it openly. I'm going to email the head of the Neo project and see what we can do abo ut an 'early' list for Neo or at least for some Neo concepts.
