Your new boss obviously doesn't worry about development time since he
chooses PHP over CF, and the points about security issues is FAAAAAAAAAAAAR
out. Obviously your new boss need some professional (mental) help!

The new boss has arrived in my department and of course he wants everyone to
switch from the awesome and all mighty cold fusion to .... PHP. We do need
some other strengths in our department for those clients who don't want us
to host their application or don't have cf on their server, but, he wants a
complete switch.  Here is a glimpse into his last email:

"It could be argued that both technologies have their strengths and
weaknesses. However, in the corporate IT department, CF is usually not an
option due to cost and security problems. I realize that changing
perceptions and old habits are sometimes difficult, but necessary.
Especially in our industry (high-tech).

The need to deliberate the issue further is a mute point."

Does anyone have any opinions on his security problems comment?  It seems
that alliare is pretty good about getting patches up - or we have just been
lucky and not had any problems.  And, would you agree that in the corporate
IT department cf is "usually" not an option?

Thanks in advance for any input.
