In the comments of Ben Forta's rebuttal to the ComputerWorld article that listed ColdFusion as one of 10 dead computer skills, I noticed that a few people made mention of an increase in billable rates in recent years. I have also found this to be true, and thought it might be interesting to create an unofficial survey of billable rates by U.S. CFML developers.

I put together a survey at the newly revamped and exceptionally slower-than-before SurveyMonkey. If I collect enough decent data (and it won't make me look bad to my clients!), I will share the results in a future post. If you are a CFML developer that works in the U.S. (sorry others, but I had no idea how to convert currency and such), and you work in a position in which you bill clients an hourly rate, I invite you to fill out the survey.
