It isn't as though CF was ever promoted as an open-source solution - I would think it is the intellectual property of MM? If so, how is it legal to "add features" to core CF? Doesn't this get borderline into Sun Vs. MS type stuff?
My one thought is that "new features" are the one piece of BlueDragon that Macromedia cannot possibly lay any claim of intellectual property too. With regards to CFML, they probably can make a claim that most of it is "theres" but I wonder how much effort they have put into securing their intellectual property. (I.E. is every CFML tag somehow trademarked or copyright )
