I am due for a longer post on the Promoting ColdFusion Outside the ColdFusion Community Birds of a Feather (BOF) from MAX 2007 Chicago, but I thought I would post this in the meantime.
Larry Clarkin of Microsoft was kind enough to participate in the BOF, at the suggestion of fellow user group manager and Seneca College Illustration - Technical graduate Luke Kilpatrick. He wrote up a nice blog post about the BOF and the ColdFusion community in general:

A few people asked me if I would be at MAX in Barcelona or Tokyo. Unfortunately, no, I am not in Barcelona, and I won't be at MAX Japan, but I hope that others will carry the promoting ColdFusion torch there for me!

OPEN SOURCE CF. If you want CF to be the most popular web application language out there then give it away. CF probably accounts for a very small piece of their revenue. I think it would help them promote their two jewels PDF & Flash. Personally I think CF is well worth the cost... but if you're looking for popularity then you will have to give it away.
