Bit late in the thread but I think I do have an insight on this. I worked as an Allaire Consultant for Allaire and then Macromedia for just about 1 year. During that period I traveled all over the USA helping mainly end-users to fix broken sites. I visited some pretty big clients and had to pick up and understand their sites very quickly (typically my assignments were 3 days max in many cases). The bottom line is that if you are looking to make CF code transportable and understandable by multiple developers and coders Fusebox is a great methodology, I can attest to that. If you are looking to try and instill good disciplines and readability in your code Fusebox is also good for that. Lastly I have used CF since 1996 and two great Eureka moments occurred in the intervening years. The first was beginning to realize what ColdFusion could actually allow me to do (and I'm still learning). The second was realizing what Fusebox actually does to the structure and planning of an application. I would never go back to a non-structured way of building apps, it just does not make any sense in my opinion.

Ben quite explicitly said that he wasn't going to give an opinion about any methodology. Given that statement its not really fair to try to extrapolate from his comments. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your ad could be here.
