I would agree to the extent that when ColdFusion 4 introduced CFSWITCH
and Fusebox gradually replaced CFIF statements CFSWITCH, Fusebox was
still Fusebox.

However, on a literal level, Fusebox is nothing more than a set of
ColdFusion templates which organize the way we access fuses, logical
components. I think that ColdFusion MX makes much of these files
unnecessary. In this case, I think that the native language elements
will replace what is largely identified as Fusebox.

In the greater scheme of things, Fusebox is a strong community and a set
of tools (like Fusedocs). I think these things can be adapted to CFCs,
and other native elements, giving them more universal appeal. If this is
the case, at what point is Fusebox just ColdFusion?

So, maybe we're just having a semantic argument here. As the article
mentioned, I was an English major once upon a time, so arguing over
connotative interpretations of words is not below me. :P
