I mentioned a few weeks ago that the boston globe was planning on doing a podcast with Jeremy Allaire, in their BizCasts series. They have published the podcast, and at least half of the interview is about ColdFusion, Allaire Corp, and Macromedia.

The Boston Globe's weekly business podcast called the Bizcast will soon feature an interview with Jeremy Allaire. While he will probably be mostly talking about his new company BrightCove, it's likely that ColdFusion will be mentioned when they introduce him.

I refrained from posting about the merger yesterday, though I had some thoughts written up - I never got around to posting them. Lots of people have commented on the topic since, Jason Kottke has a good summary of some of the recent talk about the merger.

That's what WDDX stands for. It was created in 1998 by the folks at Allaire (headed by Simeon Simeonov) 7 years later the web is just starting to embrace the concept. Granted, not many folks are using WDDX, rather they are using SOAP, or REST web services.
