developer's exchange is a key part of the community.. if it were to go way-side due to a bad implementation or frustration, it certainly would decrease core community... of course, we have this list as well.... but the point in part is, support cost and the cost to maintain a community is big, but build loyalty, return sales, etc...
USAIR doesn't cancel all flights to do upgrades to its fleet.. nor does the FDIC close its digital systems... there always must be contingency plans.. downtime minimized... no matter what size you are... migration is no exception... I don't envy the job... mergers and acquisitions can lead to goofy leadership wars... I only hope that Macromedia doesn't fumble the ball on the Allaire products... and the community... -paris -----Original Message----- From: Billy Cravens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2002 19:26 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Macromedia's destruction of the Allaire Site... Haha - very true. So what? We pay so much for the developer's exchange, we shouldn't be concerned with their implementation issues :0) -----Original Message----- From: Jochem van Dieten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2002 5:35 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Macromedia's destruction of the Allaire Site...
