I guess you have to look at the audience. 1) .NET developers do exist in both CFMX / .NET worlds (ie I've been as of late in both worlds .NET and MM (cfmx, flash etc). One of our guys just today coded up a .NET+CFMX app (we have a .NET based docmanagement application but we have a CFMX front end - turns out none of the java doco manage tools were to the braintrusts liking?).
2) Flash Developers varey from php, asp, aspx, cfmx, cgi, html etc.. So they have a stake in both worlds. MXDU imho core concept is showing off the world of Macromedia and all its hooks surrounding it. 3) DW may have a lot of ASP developer base? 4) Broaden your horizons, don't be so quick to close off .NET as a whole. I'm concerned at those who are in the blind faith (java worshipers). I'm all for both really, I like working in .NET as it feels easy in some ways then it would if i were to embark on java? Microsoft have some nice tools made available - code wise its a bit of leap (ie i'm talking about VB here.. this = me? wtf?) - but visual studio is purty. I dunno, if was allowed to attend tommorow, i would of attended it if anything to see whats up and how it could relate to any of the Macromedia range (whether they show me or i conjure it up) - eg actually is .NET "No Touch Deployment" - if you're not as quick to run out and by FLEX/FLASH but want a similiar concept that taps into your strong CFMX backend... its another option? MXDU = Learnered stuff + Inspiration. Jeremy: Life is like a box of Chocolates, ya never know what Microsoft will buy next. Scott Out. (MXDU sux!..eheheh..bitter...can't go..must abuse a puppy or something). P.S You know god kills a kitten for every hour i don't attend MXDU..for shame! foooor shammmme!...
