:) yikes..all this talk of weapons and arsenals, I thought I'd repeat what we actually said at the conference:
We're signed up to be yet another contributor to the CFEclipse project. That's pretty much it. Just like the CF team helps support CF development in HomeSite+ and DW, we think it makes sense to help developers wanting to develop in CFEclipse have a good experience as well. There's stuff we think we might be able to help out with that would be difficult to do properly without us, and we want folks to have a good development experience with CFEclipse and CF, for sure. If you look longer term, we've already said Zorn will be Eclipse-based, so it might also makes sense that the CF team would be interested in helping make sure that if you're using an Eclipse-based environment for Zorn work, for example, you have a good development environment to build Zorn/CF apps in one space. Again, though, we're just helping out...we don't want to own or run the CFEclipse project, and I think the folks running the project would tell you the same: we've been very respectful of their ownership of the project, and our position as a contributor. We have helped come up with some ideas and suggestions, but not any more or less than I think any other contributor has. We also bring to the table some of our know-how in supporting various editors for CF development, we're pretty good at writing specs, managing projects, delivering quality code, etc, so hopefully we can help make CFEclipse better through our participation. That's really the only goal. Weâve already started the process of identifying the features that are most wanted/needed that we can uniquely help out with, and hopefully youâll see some of this become more discussed in the next few weeks as we flush some of this out.
