Macromedia I hope you are paying attention. As you can tell, the COLDFUSION guys have step into the party and we are a little uncomfortable with the music.
I just look at the archives and the number of threads and thread contributions over the last week seems to be centered around RIA's, Flashing Remoting, and standard compatiblity issues. You got us excited about RIA, and we are ready to give it some muscle, but it is obvious that there are a few things we need you to help us straighten out. 1). Design & Analysis Methodology Object Oriented may not be the solution. 2). A Development Methodology We need a development framework, naming conventions, and RIA best practices that we can trust. We need a patterned approach to organizing .cfc's, .cfm's, .swf's, .fla's, .as, .css, .xml and more. Who owns what, and who's responsible for what operations. That's a lot of files and alot of variable scopes to maintain. 3). A relevant development enviornment. How about adding another page to my ColdFusion Studio 5 (Homesite+) that not only provides a live browse of HTML but one that let's me browse as Flash or PDA or Phone or whatever. Dreamweaver is not really positioned to hold that space. It's not the "brand" of the developers or those who say they are.
