Excellent?! If you ever work on an enterprise search tool or speak to any taxononimist to realise that Verity is a bad word in the search circles... It is "get many results, get no results" kind of tool. Simply awful. I urge anyone who is on MX to never consider Verity (especially if you do not want to pay tens of thousands for a crap search tool) to yet Lucene first, it is faster, more accurate and more importantly...FREE.

Until MM bought Allaire all it was Dreamweaver (I am not counting Fireworks as I think it cannot compete with Photoshop). >> To be fair Macromedia have always been more than that. Over the years with some shrewd acquisitions (Allaire for example). In fact thanks to MM ColdFusion has never been a better platform. I was one of the doomsayers as I have been using ColdFusion since it was called Cold Fusion. But MM's engineers are truly the best around (Damon Cooper, Mike Nimer, etc) and the efffervescant Tim Buntel as Senior Product Manager. Adobe will nurture them and we will all benefit. In fact you only need to reference the "third party" docs of ColdFusion to see the bits and pieces that they have brought to us. More than the excellent Verity engine even. I once thought give HomeSite back to Nick Bradbury (FeedDemon and TopStyle) but Dreamweaver 8 is pretty good - bloody good actually - and HomeSite is still on the CD. At least I think is on the Studio 8 CD. Don't want to wake my flatmate up to check. When Adobe finally acquire Macromedia they will be getting much more for their money. Firstly - us - the dedicated developers. Secondly the real people that front up and stick up for us like Sean Corfield, Ben Forta, Tim Buntel, Mike Chambers, et al. It might be rocky for a while. It was when MM first grabbed Allaire. But in true Internet time we will all bounce back and give Microsoft something to really think about! I didn't just spend AUD$650 on Studio 8 to abandon Macromedia products so readily.
