I just got back from CFObjective() 2008 where everyone was quite excited that ColdFusion was burning up the charts on the Tiobe Software Index. It was in the top 20 and had more little green up-arrows than any other language, indicating a strong future.
I checked the chart today and found that ColdFusion was nowhere to be seen! How strange! A ctrl-F on the page revealed this wonderful little nugget:
"Richard Bremner pointed out that ColdFusion is not a programming language. It is a framework comparable to JSP and ASP. As a consequence, ColdFusion has been removed from the TIOBE list. All its history has been deleted, which means that the history of the index has changed a bit as well."
All I can say is "wow, really?" Just like that? What is Richard Bremner afraid of? And who the frick is Richard Bremner anyway?
