Why should we be telling them what we want done? This is a marketing and sales problem and to be quite frank M$ is kicking their bums.

Again, I'll ask the question - HOW? I honestly have no idea how firmware used to push it, I started CF just around the end of firmware, so I missed out on it. To be completely frank, I think IMHO Adobe is listening (they may be slow to move, but they are listening) to what is happening in ANZ, but we're not really giving them a clear message on what exactly we want done other than 'this sucks'. We're being a bit of the quintessential client that is saying 'I don't like it, but keep changing it and I'll tell you when I do', which we all know and love. I mean, we all complained about how hard/painful/etc it was the actually just buy ColdFusion in ANZ, now there are dedicated resellers in the region to help solve that problem. Case in point, we presented a real problem, and a solution was provided. So what could Adobe be doing better? If this question can be answered well, I can put my ACP hat on with something I can actually take to Adobe, and maybe a solution can be reached... or at least, a discussion can be started.
