What I am observing is an increasing number of participants on this list (CF list) advocating PHP instead of CF, without even the benefit of knowing the total requirements of a given project.
Which potentially results in the self fulfilling process that was the point of my previous communication. Is PHP a better, more cost effective solution? If so, we are wasting our time here and need to move on. - Calvin -----Original Message----- From: Micha Schopman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 01, 2005 7:35 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF vs LAMP "I don't think finding someone would ever be an issue, there's a good number of CF developers not employed or looking for additional work all over the country/world." This is definitely not the case. Maybe in the US, but certainly not everywhere. As far as lamp concerned, PHP is a very mature platform, as well as Apache. There is a lot of ignorance regarding PHP. PHP scales very well, it runs cross platform, and direct access to resources for development on the job market are very high. OO development is supported for a long time, the community is immense, it has tailor made development software, it has tailor made compression techniques, tailor made template engines, and very large applications are not an issue. Don't let yourself be blinded by your CF love, PHP is very much alive as a high end development platform. :) Micha Schopman Project Manager Modern Media, Databankweg 12 M, 3821 AL Amersfoort Tel 033-4535377, Fax 033-4535388 KvK Amersfoort 39081679, Rabo 39.48.05.380 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- Modern Media, Making You Interact Smarter.
