Thank you. I know the team will be pleased to hear that!

I want to be extremely clear that what follows is *my* opinion and not 
any sort of official Macromedia policy statement!!!

<unofficial>
Yes, and there are about 300,000 CF developers compared to about 
1,000,000 Flash developers and substantially more DW users...

Naturally, Macromedia want to grow the number of CF developers (hey, as 
a business Macromedia naturally want to sell more CF licenses) but most 
CF developers use the free developer edition whereas most Flash 
developers pay $500 for their software for development...

I am not at all surprised that CFers want an HTML interface to the 
Exchange. I am also not surprised that a lot of users at large like the 
new Exchange.
</unofficial>

That said, your suggestions and concerns *are* being evaluated and 
considered for future versions of the Exchange.

Me? I like the Flash UI on the Exchanges - I hated the BV text version 
and I hated the Allaire text version. Can't please everyone tho'...
