Adobe to Buy Macromedia: Bye Bye ColdFusion?

I heard this today and I am honestly concerned that CF will be phased out by Adobe since it's not the main reason for the purchase - Flash incorporated into PDF's will be fantastic, but I think it will be the death of Fireworks and CF...


R.I.P.

I completely agree - I even mourned a bit on my blog this morning.

added: Wish I could find hands-on one-on-one tutor for PHP (face to face, not online) around here. I'd feel better about the future.

I am concerned with the whole Macromedia product line myself. I am afraid Dreamweaver will turn into a ugly Golive. The Macromedia team better keep building good software for Adobe or else I will turn to Microsoft fully for all my web development needs.

It doesn't make sense to buy a company for 3.4 billion just to kill all their products.

I agree. I have used Golive in the past and I wanted to just smash the computer because Golive sucks so much. If Dreamweaver turns ugly I will start developing XAML and Avalon based websites.

adobe eats macromedia

nobody is going to kill dreamweaver...
...they aint stupid...
...errhhh...i guess they were stupid...when they made golive.
...uhhh....and livemotion....and atmosphere....
....and stopped upgrading dimensions...
...but they got smart enough to buy macromedia.
...so they are smart now.



ps---
but you can kiss fireworks and freehand goodbye for sure.
and i hope that adobe finds value in upgrading fontographer.

I don't think CF & Fireworks will die. They are just too powerful to die!
