Yes - an excellent point.
One of the real strengths of this merger is Macromedia's legacy expertise in ASP
development - partially inherited from their acquisition of Drumbeat (which BTW
was a an exceptional product), and to which they can now add client and server
side expertise in Cold Fusion. In terms of database driven development and
environments, this encompasses a huge gamut of possibilities.
Providing Macromedia also embrace XML and other emergent dynamic web enabling
technolgogies, we, as developers, should only concern ourselves with optimum
productivity, utilising whichever development environment provides for that most
effectively and efficiently.
I look to Macromedia to keep their eye on the ball, and, as a single source
company, and preferably within a single product (e.g, UltraDev), provide me with
the freedom of choice in achieving my optimum development objectives within a
diverse, yet integrated, development environment.
We have to look beyond Cold Fusion, ASP etc. to the ultimate objectives - we
should not see this as the end of Cold Fusion, but the beginning of Cold Fusion
Plus.
