We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
Marcel Boucher is the Product Manager in the Technical Marketing Team for the Adobe Enterprise and Developer Business Unit (whatever that means!). In practice, he's a hardcore techie who has been with Adobe for a decade or so, has been involved with LiveCycle for years, is a Java-head ... and he recently saw the light and has become a big fan of both ColdFusion and Flex. And, although I don't want this to go to his head, his first CF apps were rather impressive, some of the best first attempts I have seen! And Marcel has just started blogging, and plans to cover the integration of ColdFusion, Flex, and LiveCycle.
Zhenhua Yang (aka Zee) has also started blogging about Flex and LiveCycle. No CF there yet, we'll have to work on him. ;-)
About Ben Forta Ben Forta is Adobe's Senior Technical Evangelist. In that capacity he spends a considerable amount of time talking and writing about Adobe products (with an emphasis on ColdFusion and Flex), and providing feedback to help shape the future direction of the products. By the way, if you are not yet a ColdFusion user, you should be. It is an incredible product, and is truly deserving of all the praise it has been receiving. In a prior life he was a ColdFusion customer (he wrote one of the first large high visibility web sites using the product) and was so impressed he ended up working for the company that created it (Allaire). Ben is also the author of books on ColdFusion, SQL, Windows 2000, JSP, WAP, Regular Expressions, and more. Before joining Adobe (well, Allaire actually, and then Macromedia and Allaire merged, and then Adobe bought Macromedia) he helped found a company called Car.com which provides automotive services (buy a car, sell a car, etc) over the Web. Car.com (including Stoneage) is one of the largest automotive web sites out there, was written entirely in ColdFusion, and is now owned by Auto-By-Tel.
