I just hope that they keep on with cfstudio as a separate product - I don't
want to try to develop fusebox sites etc in ultradev...

People don't want animation.
Research has proven (as has my own experience in talking to users over the
years), that people (especially those on slow links) don't want all of this
animated, presentation frontend stuff. They rather want to get straight to
the
point, and without being slowed down by graphics and other non-relevant
content.
The strength of this merger is in database driven application development.
Macromedia bought Drumbeat, which was very ASP oriented, and has now been
absorbed into UltraDev. If we can end up with a product for CF/JRun, which
does
everything from Studio to UltraDev - that would be quite something. Of
course it
would need to do ASP(.net) as well for the whole market.
