Barry, bad press, huuh? Okay I just need to say I wasn't having a go at Dale. 'mozz' is aussie, right. Was trying to be funny.
I don't know about Ante's but in general I do believe in CF and the more sites the more people the better :) To be clear - you've got my support, and I'm not a 'knocker'. I do try to contribute too and I'm offering to do more if I can. I might be reluctant to pot anything to learncf... I've already been heart broken by coldfusioncookbook.com :( Charlie made a good point and suggested some good ideas (on another thread). He seemed to be thinking more collaboratively (2.0?) about how the community could share and relate all the CF stuff out there. It seemed to slip though to the keeper, but I found it interesting. Dare I say that the traditional 'submit your stuff to my site' approach doesn't lend itself to collaboration or alow for transparent moderating or whatever. Anyhow, one day and 30 mins to go... I'll definitely check out learncf when it goes live. Cheers.
