Claude, why does the client care? ask him what the business reason is that sparks his interest.
if he's afraid of committing to CF for a long term strategy, then the fact that Adobe owns CF (and is committed to growing it) and how long it's been around should be enough for him. microsoft killed off ASP classic in favour of ASP.NET. No easy migration process. and now my ASP.NET 1.1 code won't run on my 2.0 boxes... and 3.0 is comming. However, Alaire, MACE and now Adobe have been committed on not breaking old code with new versions. Now *that's* some business reasons to stick with CF! Claude, this really sounds like a client trying to blow smoke up people's bottoms with heresay and part-formed knowledge. Sheesh! there are still multi-million dollar projects being written with Progress 4GL right now. You could say that that stuff is as outdated as COBOL and yet it hasn't stopped those projects. so what for what _business_ reasons_ does your client care? does he specify database vendors too? How about operating systems? type of workstations the code is being written on? the colour of your tie? just a thought barry.b On 12/14/06, Dale Fraser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Make sure you don't miss this one. > > > > http://www.telstra.com.au/products/home.cfm > > > > If it's good enough for Telstra. > > > > Regards > > Dale Fraser > > > > http://dale.fraser.id.au > > > ------------------------------ > > *From:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *On > Behalf Of *Charlie Arehart > *Sent:* Thursday, 14 December 2006 9:51 AM > *To:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com > *Subject:* [cfaussie] Re: Cold Fusion Is Old Hat compared to php aps etc > !!!! > > > > See this: > > > > World's Top Companies Use ColdFusion MX > > http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/proven/ > > > > Also, Ben Forta has long maintained a list of shops using CF, and he > offers a subset of "highlighted" ones (from which I imagine many of the > above were drawn, yet offers still more): > > > > http://www.forta.com/cf/using/list.cfm?highlight=1 > > > > > > /Charlie > http://www.carehart.org/blog/ > > > > > ------------------------------ > > *From:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *On > Behalf Of *claude raiola > *Sent:* Wednesday, December 13, 2006 4:55 PM > *To:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com > *Cc:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] > *Subject:* [cfaussie] Cold Fusion Is Old Hat compared to php aps etc !!!! > > > > Hi, > > > > A client commented that CF is old hat and behind the times its market > share is diminishing beaten by asp, php and others > > > > A list of largely highly trafficked websites in cf would be helpful to > prove this client wrong and champion the cf cause > > > > > > > > > > > > Kind Regards > > Claude Raiola > B.Econ(Acc.); B.Hotel Mngt. > Mobile: 0414 228 948 > Phone: 07 5538 5961 > Fax: 07 3319 6444 > > Websites: > www.WebsiteSolutions.com.au <http://www.websitesolutions.com.au/> > www.AustralianAccommodation.com <http://www.australianaccommodation.com/> > www.AccommodationNewZealand.com <http://www.accommodationnewzealand.com/> > www.HospitalityPurchasing.net <http://www.hospitalitypurchasing.net/> > www.Samaris.net <http://www.samaris.net/> > > > > > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
