David didn't post that here, Todd forwarded to this list, it was originally posted in the forums. If you want to engage him in dialog, you'll need to visit that thread in the HomeSite forum.
While none of the currently shipping software was named in the lawsuit, we did proactively make some changes based upon all of this stuff that's been keeping the lawyers busy.

They weren't done to in some way limit HomeSite+, they were done out of legal requirements. All of the Macromedia MX products had to change because of this (compare Dreamweaver MX shipping version to the preview release, for example). We're aware that these changes are important to some people, so here are some things we can do to mitigate them: You can download VTM tag updaters for ColdFusion Studio 4.5 and 5 to get ColdFusion MX tag support into these products (this essentially gives CF Studio 4.5 or 5 the same functionality of HomeSite+). Download the updater here: http://www.macromedia.com/software/coldfusionstudio/productinfo/resources/ta g_updaters/ You can also download the CFML help tree for HomeSite+ here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/homesite/updates/cfml_ref.zip Please feel free to ask for any further clarifications or questions. -Dave David Deming Product Manager, Macromedia </quote> ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
