RE: [CFCDEV] Application design ideas

[Phillip Senn]

My question is: When do you feel that you know enough to proceed? I'll give you a scenario from the UI end: A friend of mine is explaining what he wants to do.  I say, "It sounds like a perfect use of Spry.  Check out this example". http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/NonDestructiveFilterSample.html "WOW!" he says.  "That's great!  That's exactly what I want!  Now how do I do it?" "I don't know", I say.  "You have now reached the limit of my knowledge on Spry."   I'll give you another example: Friend of mine is explaining what he wants to do.  I say "It sounds like a perfect use of a framework." "What's a framework?" he asks.  "There's Fusebox, Model-Glue, Mach-II, (ColdSpring, Reactor), Farcry, and a few others" I say. "Great!  Which one do we use?" "I don't know."   Here's another example: He asks "Should we use html or Flex 2?" I say "We should probably use Flex 2, but I don't know it."         You are subscribed to cfcdev.
