Shaun,
We just serve flat renders of spectra where ever possible and that has freed us up so 
much. I think part of the "fun" we have had with spectra has been finding ways to use 
it and make it work.

With an aggressive caching strategy using cfsupercache rather than cfcache
we've knocked out most of the performance problems.

Dave,
We still suffer a little from problems of scale and performance but have
over come a lot and expect to overcome more with CFMX, if you have a lot of
investment already it may be worth working around rather than junking ?

We are replacing Spectra, mostly due to scaling/performance problems

Hello all.  At my company, we're giving thought to budgets for 2003.  As
you may recall, Macromedia's support for Spectra is set to cease at the
end of that year.  So I'm having to consider our future plans and just
what to do with Spectra in and beyond 2003.

I see a few immediate options:

1) Keep Spectra - Rely on the community, consultants and my own
resources to continue to build and support applications and hope it is
sustainable

2) Replace Spectra - Invest in another "content management" product
like PaperThin's CommonSpot and hope it remains viable on the long term

3) Recreate Spectra - Dump all these packages and their price tags in
favor of home-grown code

I'm looking to start some discussion on this subject.  But if you don't
mind sharing, please share the list what you, your company or your
clients (names not needed) are planning to do in regard to Spectra.  Or
just chip in your two cents on the best course of action.  Anything will
do.

Thanks!

Tom Briscoe
