When I first posted, it wasn't an accident.  Ben Forta had posted an
announcement on his blog and I happened to see it within a few minutes
in my RSS news reader and decided to pass along the good news.  Word
travels pretty quickly within the CF community... as previously
mentioned the buzz has been here, on Twitter, Facebook group, lots of
blog activity, etc.  Anyone who watches any CF-related community will
know within a couple of days (not to mention their presence at
cf.Objective() which is going on now).  Those are the people who
really matter, in my opinion, as they will continue to spread the word
far and wide.  I'm not sure what people are expecting from Adobe on
the marketing or advertising front around the release.  As excited as
I am to see ColdFusion evolve, I also realize that Adobe is a huge
company with a lot of products to tend to, many of which are more
important to them from a marketing standpoint than ColdFusion is
(Creative Suite sales are probably an order of magnitude greater than
CF sales, so while CF is profitable, it's likely a drop in the bucket
compared with the heavy hitters that have a broader market appeal).  A
mention on the homepage would be nice though. :)
