I had the chance to play with the Alpha, then the Beta, and watched Joe's presentation on Model-Glue:Unity yesterday. All I can say is this kicks ass. A stunning example of what happens when a sharp guy with vision combines three great frameworks together and creates something amazing. I liked his discussion of what he called (I believe) "2nd generation" and "3rd generation" frameworks, where the 2nd generation helps you eliminate duplication at the file level, but the 3rd generation helps you eliminate duplication at the process level (for example, handling CRUD for ALL of your tables in an abstracted way). I won't go into more detail because there are already some other blog posts that cover this. Suffice to say that I continue to be floored by what the CF community is pumping out nowadays. Fusebox 5, Reactor, ColdSpring...this stuff is just getting ridiculously awesome. :-)
