I think it's the communities you're involved with, perhaps. ColdBox, CFWheels, Mura, etc., have all been pretty freaking active. Lots of new stuff coming down the pipes, etc.. Railo and OpenBD have been freaking *smoking*. "They're on fire!", etc.. Just awesome stuff, lots of cutting edge cloud crap, social networking stuff, etc.. I'm more excited about CFML than I have been in 12 years, easy. :Denny -- The delusions of self-love cannot be prevented, but intellectual misconceptions as to the means of achieving success may be corrected.
