We have several systems under development currently. Each one was using Fusebox 4.1 as its framework. Now as the technical lead on these projects I am always cautious about introducing risk. Upgrading the framework to fusebox 5 was potentially adding risk.
In the end I decided that it was better to make the change now (fairly early in development) rather than try and do it later.
In reality there were no problems AT ALL. We literally changed the include in index.cfm to point to the fusebox5 core files instead of the fusebox4.2 core files and the job was done. All existing code ran as normal.
Since that was achieved so easily we have subsequently been enjoying the improved syntax of FB5 XML such as the nested argument tags for invoke, and also the ability to have nested ifs in the circuit.xml files.
So a big thank you to all involved in getting FB5 completed.
