A Google search returns 5.6 million cfm pages in Australia.
A few years back there were 4,500 distinct .au domains serving ColdFusion
pages, which were served from 1,422 distinct IP addresses - I posted an earlier
list of domains on cfaussie. Many were hosted at Webcentral or in the US -
remember that a site hosted overseas or on (especially overloaded) shared
hosting servers is invisible as far as Adobe Australia is concerned. I have
reminded (remound, harranged, waved hands at etc) people of this many times
before - if you want to support ColdFusion in Australia, host or buy your
licenses HERE. Yes it's a bit more expensive, but so is drinking sustainable
coffee or clothing not made by slave labour. If the small difference in price
threatens the viability of your site, I'd suggest there is something wrong with
your business model...
Finally remember that the CF community is a lot bigger than the cfaussie
mailing list - think of all the people who turn up to CFObjective who otherwise
do not participate in user groups or the list.
Cheers,
Robin
