I think there's a business opportunity to create a CF based Wiki; I've had to integrate a PHP one because there aren't any good CF based ones out there. But I just want to comment that for MACR to make one; the decision would be to divert resources. Frankly I'd rather see MACR focusing on their core products, as opposed to pulling CF guys off of CF8 to make a CF based wiki which would be totally sunk cost unless they plan to sell it as a product. Financially it wouldn't make sense. charlespaz1 wrote: I recognized it as MediaWiki, and I understand PHP is a great tool, I use it myself when the project calls for it. I have nothing against Macromedia using PHP if it is the right tool for the job. However, as the "15th Billionth" person to comment on this, I find the impression that it gives in this case an unsettling one. How would you feel if Microsoft hosted their web pages on Linux/Apache instead of Windows/IIS? Or developed Office in Delphi? It just wouldn't give a great impression of their confidence in their own product. Who, if not Macromedia, has the most knowledgable people of ColdFusion? Who, if not Macromedia, should be running a ColdFusion based Wiki, to not only showcase their product, but to show their confidence in its use in an enterprise environment. With a simple Google search today I found a ColdFusion wiki, and I've downloaded a few others previously. http://www.cdsi-solutions.com/cfwiki/ But hey, that's just my opinion. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Mike Chambers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Yes.
