Re: [OpenBD] Re: Is OpenBD alive?

[Alan Holden]

I'm not sure if I would characterize it as outright "hostility". OpenBD is a nice package that's easy to customize, bundle and deploy. But honestly, it probably does have some more idiosyncrasies - and seems a bit more finicky in some areas - than the other engines. This results in some more noise and frustration, but I'm not sure they all get hostile. They probably just go over to Railo. It's nice for me to have more than one tool in the box. When the client wants ACF, I'm all for it. When I need a fast web standalone to deploy as a WAR, I'll go with OpenBD. When I need a multiple-app platform with Mura or RO support (or an ACF changeover), I opt for Railo.

Some of it seems to be related to compatibility issues between OpenBD and ACF and Railo with OpenBD seeming to stand apart from the other two. But that doesn't seem to explain it all.

After all, we all already know that CFML is not the "Next big thing" :) I also presume that we are all experienced programmers with different skills, but with many years of coding. So, it could be interesting to help to grow the plugin area, focusing in special projects. For example, I'm actually trying to make some kind of connection between an Asterisk server and a OpenBD server. May be my work could help someone else if I can package the development in some kind of distribution....
