Oh yes, I was putting some REST/SOAP related highlights together with what this 
"blog" claims: 
https://hostek.com/blog/hosting/coldfusion-2016-is-released-what-now/

Which, to be honest, has the stink of an anti-Flash bias, so probably isn't 
very credible anyway: 
"There’s a few items getting the axe. We can’t complain, in particular they 
were either unnecessary or a hassle – flash remoting for example."

Not sure I like the word "yet" at the end of that quote.  Even if you factor 
out Flash (which IMO we shouldn't), can't an AIR application talk to CF?  (I'm 
not actually a CF guy.)
