I've just started using it. It's a bit of a shift in terms of thinking, but I
like it. In some ways, it's easier to put stuff together. A query has it's own
file. A display block, or an action the same. This makes finding an debugging
much easier.

Just about every link or form gets referred to the index, though sensible, if
this is not your current mind set, I find it takes a little getting used to. I
often use the url bar to determine where I'm going, or where I'm at. Fusebox has
a tendency to hide the templates in use. Everything is
index.cfm?fuseaction=something.

As I mentioned, I'm new at it, but it makes a kind of sense. I think I'll keep
at it.
