another question would be, what features of coldfusion do you need? maybe open BD would be fine for this application? 52 * free = free or Railo. how ever this might not be an option for various reasons, but just a thought for you. On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 11:36 AM, Rob Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm pretty sure you'd get a good discount for 52 licenses from Adobe, so give them a call. If for any reason you have to go open source, I'd strongly recommend checking out Railo. Nothing against OpenBD, but I've been really impressed by what Gert and the team have done with Railo as have

We have a decent size flex app now and I think build time is very reasonable. Our C++ app however takes ages to compile, there is a lot of work to do when compiling. One easy solution is to buy more powerful computers for developers. Regards Dale Fraser http://learncf.com http://flexcf.com
