RE: Macromedia MX

[Karen Harker]

I assume you mean a CF Studio MX, as they do have a CFMX server.  However, I don't think MM will change their direction, nor do I think they need to.  I fully support their attempts to create a single unified development environment.  There is no real need and probably not enough market to support two separate, yet so similar tools.    I think where MM failed was in their selection of Studio utilities to be incorporated into DW.  They favored too many DW "ways" over Studio methods, such as FTPing and extended replace, and they excluded too many Studio techniques, such as Studio's "site map", which shows the images & included files in each template.   I have registered my requests & bugs w/MM and hope others will too, as that is one of the many ways the developers can determine in which direction to go.       Karen R.

I have never been impressed with DW and have not seen anything in the DWMX that would change my mind. Maybe they will hear us and create a CFMX.   -----Original Message----- From: Karen Harker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 8:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Macromedia MX DWMX replaces CF STudio.  They do have a "Studio" but it is merely a packaged environment for DW, Flash, Fireworks, etc.   Frankly, I'm none too impressed with DWMX and will probably wait on purchasing it until we actually get CFMX.       Karen R.

They have server but it looks like they want us using Dreamweaver or the like to create the pages . . .
