[FX.php List] [Off-ish] Advice on FMS8A -> FMS9A migration strategy

[Bob Patin]

I've given the FX.php/FM API question a lot of thought; it's hard to  
consider changing to the API after working so much in FX. Now that  
I've done a few sites in the API, I can say that I can't decide which  
I prefer. I haven't had any failures with the API sites, but then  
they're only about a month old.

However, it was *really* discouraging to see how little FX was  
mentioned at Devcon; I know that Joel S. and the others who were there  
will concur. The only time I heard it mentioned was when some of us on  
this list met in a meeting room to talk about Ajax and new technologies.
