"Well if that's the case, where are the development contracts? "
Why do you have to work contracts, what's your worry with working full time?

I think CF is very healthy, maybe you see more jobs in some other skills, but just think how many more developers there are in that field.

There is obviously something wrong with your resume if you don't get invited to interviews, I'm no IT God but I always get invited for interviews, for jobs I don't even apply for.

"In the past three months I've put myself up for every single Coldfusion job that I've found, and all but one of them have been put on hold or not proceeded for one reason or another."

another reason why you should look at working full time, by avg syd contracting rates you have lost 30k by being out of work for 3 months,  you could be out of work another 3 months which will mean another $30k if you work half the year at avg rates you'll earn $60k (ish give or take $10k) how ever all full time Syd jobs I get contacted about are over $70k, anywhere from low 70's to mid 80's  (except some jobs in outer suburbs).
Now if you can pick up a job earning $80k full time in most cases it would be better then working 9 months doing contracts and earning $90k the $10k less is worth a lot more when it comes to less stress in finding next your contract which is pretty obvious that you're already suffering from that.

If you have trouble getting interviews for full time jobs then up your rate, I find the more I ask the more like I am to get an interview.
