Re: Cold fusion version 9 end-of-life question

I'm not sure what you mean by "forced to update my Dreamweaver CS6 to the new Dreamweaver CC version".  You can continue to run the CS6 version if you choose.  And while it is true that ColdFusion support has been removed from Dreamweaver CC, I can't entirely fault Adobe for this.  They produce a fine IDE specifically for ColdFusion: ColdFusion Builder.  While there is a bit of a learning curve switching from DW to CF Builder (I made the jump myself about 2 years ago), it is worth it because CF Builder is a much better tool for developing/maintaining ColdFusion applications than DW ever was.  The majority of CF developers I've talked to don't use DW for CF development; they either use CF Builder, IntelliJ, or a souped-up text editor such as SublimeText.  So dropping CF support in DW makes sense from a financial perspective: why expend resources on maintaining CF support in a product that only a small number of CF developers use when they already produce a product devoted to CF development?

 

All that said, I think some of the moves Adobe has made lately have been unfortunate - especially killing Fireworks.
