February 2011 Meeting: cfWheels presented by John C Bland II
Posted by Alan Rother | Tags: Adobe , cfWheels , ColdFusion , Monthly Meetings
Our old friend John C Bland II (http://www.fastkast.com) will be presenting on the ColdFusion Framework cfWheels (http://cfwheels.org)
cfWheels is one of my favorite new ColdFusion frameworks, built around the idea that frameworks should make our lives easier and conventions over configuration files (no XML files!)
John is one of our best speakers and one of the smartest guys on the planet. I highly recommend attending. He will be presenting via Adobe Acrobat Connect from Texas, so if you REALLY can't be with us for the meeting shoot me an email and I'll send the meeting room URL once we have it setup.
If you can make it in person, please shoot me(alan.rother [at] gmail dot com) a quick RSVP email so I can get a headcount for Pizza.
Here is the Acrobat Connect link for the meeting if you cannot make it in person

End of Year Contest
Posted by Alan Rother | Tags: Adobe , ColdFusion , Contest , Monthly Meetings
It's nearing the end of the year and lives get busy and time starts to run short. As much as we'd lov to have another meeting this year, it just doesn't look like we'll have time. So instead we've decided to have what should be a fun little contest that anyone should be able to participate in. It doesn't matter if you're the most advanced programmer in town or a total newbie still working on your first application. You can enter this contest, it shouldn't take more than an hour of your time.
September 2010 Meeting: Holistic Program Quality and Technical Debt
Posted by Alan Rother | Tags: ColdFusion , Monthly Meetings
This month our very own Nathan Strutz will be speaking about: Holistic Program Quality and Technical Debt
Holistic Program Quality and Technical Debt, is a no-code discussion on creating good, high quality software. He won't try to make you feel guilty, but will try to leave you with a few helpful takeaway thoughts to apply to your programs right away. We'll talk about big wins and quick wins and learn about how your apps acquire technical debt, how to avoid it and how to pay it off.
Other than that, I'll tell you it's pretty entertaining, lots of pictures and whatnot.
