People say the same of Railo and an objective part of me has to wonder
what it would look like if you took the entire list of features
implemented in OpenBD / Railo and listed them only once every two
years and compared it to Adobe's new features in each of their
releases? I mean, Adobe have a large, full-time team of engineers and
QA folks working on their product and I don't think anyone can deny
that each of their releases is very impressive.

Of course, what a lot of developers like about open source projects is
the continual release process where newly requested features are added
in a steady stream and the turnaround seems very quick. It feels very
responsive and with access to the source code and the ability to build
it yourself, there's much more of a sense of community ownership and
the ability to contribute.

Anyway, just one of those whimsical Sunday thoughts!

Happy New Year - and here's to even more open source goodness in 2010!
