As for statistics, there are so many large intranet sites in use that never see the light of day using CF, PHP, ASP.NET that numbers would never be very acurate.
If it interests any of you, you could check out www.forta.com/blog/ and search for his listings of major corporate entities using currently using CF. I'm not pointing this out to say that there are more major CF sites than PHP, that is not my point... my point is that saying "As to ColdFusion, It seems to me that this technology is dead already" is probably coming from someone who wouldn't know. A CF (only) developer wouldn't know the PHP usage and community as well as the PHP developer.... and vice versa. We are more familiar with what we use. Common sense. And of course, In reading so many this VS that posts, I would say people are biased to their own preferrence, quite naturally.... PHP and CF have their own pros and cons. The only way to truely evaluate them is to use them both. That's my 2 cents.
