I think much of it overshadows and diminishes what CFML's biggest advantage has always been, which is simplicity to use and ease to learn, CFML is itself a RAD Framework for JAVA don;t forget. If a newbie comes along here they are invariably told to use OOP, use MVC, use a framework, use cfscript and all the other most complex parts of CF, which rather defeats the point of using CFML doesn't it. The average newbie to CF really only needs to learn a handful of tags and functions to do what he needs on a basic site, even CFC's are not required. The frameworks, OOP and MVC topic really belongs in the realm of advanced developers who need this stuff and enterprise apps, the newbie and dabbler really shouldn't need to feel pressured into learning this stuff if they don;t need it.
