I stand by your defense. There should be a category for 'Applications USING ColdFusion' which would have iMS at the top of the list. Yes, you'd have to fight BD but it would be a fair fight in a fair category. Personally, I see Best web app as that category. Thing is, there is need for a moderator to make sure that each entry is in its correct place.
