Re: [CFCDev] More CFMX Excellence with Component Inheritance

[Matt Liotta]

There *was* a pretty comprehensive beta programme, though.  And a lot 
of
what I noticed was sorted out by the time CFMX was released, with the
bulk of the rest being sorted in the 6.1 release.

A beta program is for weeding out bugs; not making design changes. By 
the time the community was involved it was already too late. There is a 
long history in the software industry of customers knowing a vendor's 
product better than the vendor. The CFML community is no different in 
that the people best able to lead changes to the actual language don't 
work for Macromedia. Let the product managers think up new 
functionality; leave the core language to the community or at least to 
a process that involves the community.
