I'm jumping in late in this thread, so sorry if I'm repeating something already said.
Shouldn't Adobe at least publish the state of Coldfusion in Australia for the benefit of the developers / partners / companies that work on the platform? I.e. how many installations, how big the the community is in Australia? If I knew that there was 10,000 CF 8 Installs in Aus, and 15,000 CF 9 installs, I would feel somewhat comfortable that the product by large is growing, so I can make own adjustments to my career path for example, or get into flex or whatever. Right now, I don't think Adobe lets us know if the product is growing / shrinking, at least from there perspective (licence sales).. Maybe I'm wrong. If I'm wrong, does anyone have states?
