Possibly the beta test regime for CF Server 5.0 has been the best yet. The
support through the official Allaire beta site has been very good and will
see the final product, apparently due to ship in full release next month
(ZDNet), will be a breath of fresh air.

Us long time Allaire evangelists, while not quite up there as Mr Forta, will
find the switch to "Macromedia ColdFusion". Upon first loading up the CF
Administrator for CF 5.0 you will probably like what you see - I won't tell
you what you see on screen (that would spoil it).

CF 4.5x was very good. This pedigree seems to have been transferred to CF
5.0 very well. You will find the interface slightly different but still
functional. Given three days you won't be able to live without CF 5.0.

The wonderful people at Allaire/Macromedia support (beta forums) have been
great and prove that the merger will see CF at the forefront of web
development.

What next? New books from Ben Forta, et al and a new version of Studio.
4.5.2 is actually usable so 5.0 will have to do what 4.5.2 did to sway me
from 4.0!
