I'd like to see how ColdFusion compares to asp.net AS WELL AS other middleware solutions (JSP,PHP). I think it's also important to emphasize how well it can work with them. I would love to see more on how ColdFusion can be integrated with other web application tools (especially JSP & EJB, since Neo is going J2EE).

I think the comparisons that are out there compare CF 4.0 to ASP 2, which is horribly out of date (should compare CF 5.0 to ASP 3 and ASP.NET) Of course, I know this may go against the current bandwagon of saying "we will support .NET" that everyone and their dog seems to do nowadays - I think .NET is a solid platform, but I want to see true alternatives (On a side note - I've heard that MM will "support .NET" - how on earth can you be a true J2EE engine but still have support for the NET CLR?) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Earl, George" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 7:39 AM Subject: RE: Macromedia.com > Sorry if this is a duplicate post, I never saw it hit the list . . . > > Jeremy, > > I'd like to see a really nice section at the re-built site that answers the > CF vs. ASP and who's using CF type questions that we all get asked so often. > > When I get these kinds of questions, or when someone asks me to explain why > I think we should go with CF instead of a competing product, I'd like to be > able to go right to Macromedia and pull up a few pages with all the > ammunition I need to support my recommendation.
