We've been working with Adobe on releasing a CF8 Tag Poster. The CFUnited Team along with TeraTech's development team spent the last 6 months to put together this fresh new poster.
The plan is that Adobe will send a number of copies to user groups. More details about when these will be delivered will come from Rachel Luxemburg shortly.
The CFUnited team has received copies and will be distributing them during CFUnited Express and other sponsored events. More details soon about which cities we will be visiting next! Including CFUnderground in San Francisco CA November 16th. We are doing a call for speakers now! Email [email protected] to apply. Website for this event will be released soon.

They have been sending them to user groups. We created a survey http://cfunited.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/9/4/Get-yo...
It is good information for us to get to know more about the community's needs.
We send you the poster for free once we get the completed form. Thanks everyone!

I share your frustration with the lack of marketing of ColdFusion by Adobe. I want ColdFusion to be the Number 1 Web Programming Language.
However, Flex is positioned and promoted by Adobe to work with many web programming languages (Java, C#, PHP, Ruby) as the backend. What I would like Adobe to do more of (besides better promote/advertise CF) is to also promote CF as the backend web programming language of choice due to the built-in Flex-CF advantages.
My concern is not that Adobe will abandon CF, but rather that CF's market share will actually suffer due to "Web 2.0" technologies like Flex and AJAX providing a new "face" to websites developed in Java, PHP, and C#. There are Ruby-AJAX, Ruby-FLEX, Java-AJAX and Java-FLEX Frameworks out or coming out that significantly reduce CF's claim as a rapid development web programming language.
I want a cool CF ad during the next Super Bowl!
