Scott, It's nice to know that JRUN is not going to be package/released under another name. I will forward this to a couple of people who were speculating on this issue last week. As I said in my email, this was just a rumor, amongst many others regarding the demise/situation of other companies, that was going around at a recent JavaMug meeting.

Then I saw the QA team grow from 3 to about 20 (including managers and specialized teams). A lot has changed in the JRun world in 2.5 years, and most of it in the last 1.5. The teams have grown, the customer base has grown in size and sophistication, and JRun has grown from a JSP/Servlet engine to a full blown J2EE server. We're working on JRun 4 now (first beta in a couple weeks). It doesn't have any other name, and I haven't heard that it will ever have any other name. Neo may be what you heard of, which is CFML and the ColdFusion services implemented in Java and running portably on J2EE. But Neo is more of a concept and strategy than a product name (not that it's vaporware either -- first alpha is this week). I don't even know what CF.Next will be called when it's released -- could be Neo, CF 6, Whozie-whatsit, I don't know. But I know no one "in the know" would say that JRun is being released under a new name -- much less for the reasons cited below! Internal Allaire/Macromedia problems? Pure FUD. Scott Stirling JRun QA Macromedia -----Original Message----- From: Haseltine, Celeste [snip] I also heard through our local JavaMug group that Allaire is planning on deploying a new version of JRUN under another name. I don't know if this is true, but some people were speculating that the reason for the name change would be to distance themselves from their previous poor reputation for support, amongst other internal problems currently occurring within Macromedia/Allaire. This also is not new. Many other companies are also either renaming their products, or renaming themselves to distance themselves from whatever previous issues/reputation they may have had in the industry. I saw the same thing happen in the oil and gas industry in Houston when the oil bust hit in 1982. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your ad could be here.
