Well it's really going to be a personal preference. Personally for me, Fusebox 3
still solves MUCH more than CFCs do. The web services in CFCs seem great, but I
have only needed a web service 2 times in the last year, whereas I've needed
nested layouts in EVERY project.

As far as Fusedocs go, I don't think one way is preferable over the other,
because regardless of the technology used, the concept of Fusedocs is still
useful. It's a simple concept. Don't document your code, code your
documentation.

So whether you're doing Fusebox, CFCs, JSP, PHP, CF, ASP yada yada, fusedocs
would still work. They might need to be slightly changed for each technology but
the concept is the same.
