I am not sure that we have really definitive numbers. But, the last time we did some analysis, about 75% of CF servers were running on Windows, and the number of ColdFusion developers who developed on Windows was even higher than that, a lot higher. Having said that, multi-platform is indeed important, which is why we ask about platform in the survey.
The best thing you guys can do to help us now is to get as many people as possible to fill the survey in. Getting responses from the cf-talk readers and frequent goog or MXNA readers is easy, but we also have a pretty good idea what those responses will be. If you have co-workers or usergroup members or others who can weigh in with their views, views we might not hear as often, that would be invaluable. --- Ben -----Original Message----- From: Mark Kruger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 3:24 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Adobe ColdFusion IDE survey I'm afraid I'd have to say that is not the case....

I don't pretend to have any figured in front of me, but I'd speculate that while I -think- a majority of CF folks are on Windows, I don't know that I'd suggest it's a *significant* majority. My guess is that the investment in building a cross-platform solution would be a worthwhile investment. And yes, it's just a guess :) -- "Scientists tell us that the fastest animal on earth, with a top speed of 120 feet per second, is a cow that has been dropped out of a helicopter." - Dave Barry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:296059 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
