CFML – The Red-Headed Step Child….AGAIN!

So O'reilly published an article that lists the languages that are most commonly used in Ajax development, from most used to least.

Languages used in Ajax development

And while I'm not entirely shocked, CFML was again left out of the comparison. It seems that ColdFusion/CFML is ALWAYS left out of these comparisons. What the heck man! CFML is still a widely used language which is on par with any of the ones listed in the article. It really frustrates me to see CFML relegated to an after-thought by the press. So, what can we do to change this perception? What can Adobe do about? With the money and marketing position that Adobe holds, you would figure that they could influence things a bit.
