don't be ridiculous. there is no need for CF Studio... use Homesite+ . What is the big fuss with no more CF Studio? Homesite+ is practically the same damn thing.

But when Macromedia introduced "Contribute" is was insulting. Trust me. People attracted to "Contribute" will not be the people that build RIA. Furthermore, people attracted to Dreamweaver will not be the community to build RIA. I don't even believe that Flash Designers will be the builders of generation RIA. To really make the RIA thing work, Macromedia, or some one, will have to give us ColdFusion developers a development environment that works and one that leverages our hard earned ColdFusion competencies and listen - "Dreamweaver MX" is not it. Dreamweaver competes with FrontPage for the FrontPage sort off developer. ColdFusion Developers are not the "FrontPage" sort of people. > > "HEY MACROMEDIA IF YOU ARE LISTENING, HERE'S A STRATEGIC THOUGHT" > > !!!!
