Just another wacky article for the folks at ComputerWorld. Some technologies
are clearly dead. Like OS/2 which IBM no longer supports. CF is no where
near death.
ColdFusion has 4 different groups developing the language: Adobe, New
Atlanta, Railo, and Smith Project. These groups actively support and
developed the language are a very active community. Is the CF world smaller
than say Java or .Net? Sure but that doesn't mean it's dead or even near
death. Just that the companies that develop it haven't been very good on the
PR front. ComputerWorld mention later all the people calling them up
supporting CF after that article came out which surprised them. Bare in
mind, these lists aren't very scientific.
It just shows that top 10 lists are usually silly and shouldn't be taken
that seriously.
Yes, I agree to all of that above. I mean I code in Lasso and it has
the same death threats and issues CF seems to have from time to time,
but the community that keeps it going is going very strong. Of course
there is no Adobe behind it, but I know the inside track and it is
definitely not dying.
