I have been watching traffic on Bay Area Cold Fusion Users Group
list. Bottom line is that no one knows, though several have theories.
I'm pretty sure Flash should be unaffected -- it's pretty separate.
The HomeSite vs. Dreamweaver seems to be the most cited concern. I
think Dreamweaver is safe. Besides functionality advantages,
Macromedia has invested greatly in its extensibility; and it is
available for both Mac and PC platform. Homesite is very well loved
though and I think they would have trouble killing it.
Just opinions. But if I were you, I would go for Dreamweaver.
