Well, see, this is kind of interesting. CF (and dbWeb for that matter) had this tag-based model, but MS explicitly moved away from that with ASP 1.0 because they wanted to push their existing languages - VBScript was intended to make things easy for existing VB developers. Over time, of course, both ASP.NET and J2EE solutions embraced tags to a significant extent, demonstrating that CF was right all along. > That said, CF was referred to as a "blast from the past" on a prior show, > which led me to contact Carl and Richard - so we'll definitely be focusing on > CF in 2011, not history. People have thought of CF that way for years, but it keeps on keeping on.
