Wow, I make one little “by the way” comment in a MacroChat, and the e-mails start immediately! So, just to be sure that I don’t get misquoted …
I first demonstrated the ability to deploy ColdFusion applications without deploying source code in my keynote at DevCon 2001 in Orlando. There were no smoke-and-mirrors involved, I really did write CFML code, compile it, and then run the application without local source. But we ran into technical difficulties later in the development cycle, and thus pulled that feature from ColdFusion MX just to be on the safe side. What I said today (in response to a question in the chat pod) was that yes, we are planning this as a feature in Blackstone. I did not comment on how this will work, and did not discuss implementation at all. But, that being said, this is indeed planned.
