Their comments didn't upset me. ColdFusion has changed quite a bit since 2000. Not to mention, the app has been evolving for nearly a decade. It sounded like they "got something up quick" and the site took off. Sounds like ColdFusion was a rock star for 6-9 years if you ask me. :o)
"Only now does it finally have a modern architecture, built on Java and designed to scale." Psst... ColdFusion MX-9 has had a Java backend. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Mason [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 02, 2009 5:19 PM To: cf-talk Subject: TechCrunch calls ColdFusion "outmoded technology" Eric Schonfeld writing on TechCrunch about the b2b site mfg.com that recently was rebuilt from the ground up. He said the rebuilding was necessary because it was still using the outmoded technology of ColdFusion. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/11/02/mfg-com-takes-off-the-cuffs-with-manufacturing-marketplace-redesign/ I don't like seeing the business tech press getting this wrong. I don't know if he was told that by the mfg.com people or he just made the judgement based on what he might have read in a trade journal.
