Well I've been writing DAOs/Gateways/VO's for a couple of years now and I'm
getting tired of all the typing.  I am really starting to favor convention
over configuration as the Rails people like to chant.  I would really like
to be able to standardize on an object persistence API and so I thought
Reactor might be good for that.  It doesn't look like too much configuration
and that it would cut down on the repetitive tasks of creating all those
DAO's and Gateways.  Along these lines I've also started looking at
CFCPowerTools and onTap which are more rails-like in some ways in that they
include some scaffolding.

I've also created my own service bus but it seems like ColdSpring would be a
good way to go to have a more standardized way of sharing the services that
make up my application.  I just wasn't sure if there would be any issues on
having ColdSpring work with the DAO's that Reactor or some other persistence
API created.

And I've been thinking of using Model-Glue for the view-controller
specifically for its autowiring (thanks, Sean) as, like I said, I'm in the
camp of convention over configuartion (of course with the ability to
override as necessary).  I know there is CF on Wheels which is a Rails
implementation in CF.  Any suggestions on frameworks that will let me type
less?
