This is quite possible with dot.net.  It just hasn't been done [to my 
knowledge].

Its time all of us become ambidextrous developers with .NET + CF as

outrageous pricing for the enterprise product, poor support by adobe

For a onsey twosey server site, its not an issue but once you start
playing with the big boys, CF doesn't make financial sense.

I'm afraid I have to admit that Phil has a point here. Adobe's CF is very expensive. If someone were to create an open source CFML parser, I think you'd see a lot more sites developing with it. I was just over at a site called CFOpen.org, and while it's nice to think of there being open source code that is written in CF, what's the point if you have to buy the server-side parser to make that code work? It's very frustrating, because it's such a great language. New Atlanta comes close with their free server edition, but it can't be used for commercial software development. Also, I don't really know if it would be able to handle an enterprise level application.
