>>--- Ben There are something like 23 apps included with the Creative Cloud subscription, and it seems like Adobe is adding more all the time. I use three of these on a semi-regular basis (DW, Flash Pro, and Photoshop), and have no use for most of the others; but they're there for me if I need them. Is the dividing line between the Creative Cloud and everything else the fact that none of those programs rely on a server-side programming language? If so, that seems pretty arbitrary, since everything a web developer does depends on a server-side *something*. Nothing we do in DW really 'works' without a web server (at a minimum). Plus, if Adobe wants to keep developers using CF, what's the downside in including CFBuilder as part of the subscription? If DW CC drops support for Coldfusion, but keeps it for PHP (and I'm assuming it does), isn't that just undercutting Adobe's own position? I happen to like CFBuilder, and use the free version on a regular basis, but a colleague (and a very talented CF Developer) prefers DW, even though I've tried to convince her to use CFBuilder. Up 'til now, DW has worked for her, as it has for many other CF developers. Why cut those people off by forcing them to either a) Pony up $299 for a product they don't particularly like, b) look elsewhere (like Sublime or Brackets, as Ray suggested), or c) Hand-code without the benefit of a modern IDE. Plus, if you get enough people to download CFBuilder out of sheer curiosity and then fall in love with CF, it can only help the community (and Adobe). So, why not include CFBuilder as part of the Creative Cloud suite? -Michael -----Original Message----- From: Patti, Michael [mailto:mpa...@sherwood-group.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2013 2:07 PM To: cf-talk Subject: RE: Adobe no longer supports ColdFusion??? Really? There is a conspicuous absence of CFBuilder amongst the applications that are available for download through the Creative Cloud application manager. Seems absurd that we'd have to pay extra for just this one product, when almost every other tool Adobe makes is offered with the subscription. FlashBuilder Premium is included, but not CFBuilder. Seriously? Talk about putting us between a rock and a hard place. -Michael -----Original Message----- From: John M Bliss [mailto:bliss.j...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2013 12:58 PM To: cf-talk Subject: Re: Adobe no longer supports ColdFusion??? Really? FWIW, they still sell a CF-enabled IDE: http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-builder.html And you can, of course, still use DW for HTML/CSS/JS/etc. On Tue, Jun 18, 2013 at 1:46 PM, Gerald Guido <gerald.gu...@gmail.com>wrote: > > Apparently that is the case. > > https://twitter.com/AlexHubner/status/342704099806023682 > > G! > > On Tue, Jun 18, 2013 at 1:07 PM, Mike K <afpwebwo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > Have I missed something here?
