Why could smith not offer the same performance and functionality? If it is open source potentially it will end up offering better performance and more functionality. The only thing I see going are those items that deal with flash.

The jury's still out on exactly what I'd be willing to give up. andy -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 5:09 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Take a minute to Digg this story about the Smith Project But the fact is, if you wanted free ColdFusion, you would expect same functionality and performance as ColdFusion proper, which Smith cannot offer?

I'd want to download and play with it first though. I wrote and told them along time ago that it wasn't worth my time if it didn't support CFCs. They wrote back recently to tell me that the new version *does* support them. I still haven't tried the switch, but probably will fairly soon.
