I do not think that the acquisition of Allaire by Macromedia is a good thing
for Cold Fusion developers. I can come up with all kinds of negative
scenarios about what this will do to CF. When a "graphics tool" company
acquires a development platform, the development platform does not always
fair too well.
Consider that, if Allaire was not in some sort of trouble, it would not have
been "merged."
I have been concerned about the viability of the CF platform for about a
year. Now, I am even more concerned. I am seriously starting to consider
dropping the beloved CF platform, and head towards ASP+, COM and .NET --
Microsoft is not likely to be "acquired" any time in the near future.
