Indeed, it winds me up when people come out with such nonsense that CF is
dying and Adobe are junking it, when clearly it is not true and there is no
evidence to even hint at that.
I also suspect we have Railo to thank for a lot of the effort being put into
CF recently, being as it has upset certain people so much :-)

Where is this CF Roadmap anyway, I didn't think there was one, if there is
then I should add it to my Railo or ColdFusion comparison matrix on
cfmldeveloper

Yeah, I don't really get this either. Adobe's clearly pouring tons of effort
into improving the product, even cannibalizing features from other products.
But if there's one thing that's always been true of the CF user base, it's
always had its fair share of vocal critics of how CF is being managed,
marketed, etc. I've been working with CF since version 1, and this has
always been the way things are.
