Tim, Kristen, and I flew in to Brussels early this morning. We spent part of the day with a big European ColdFusion customer discussing ColdFusion 8, and then headed over to the Adobe Business Exchange 2007 event. I presented an in depth technical overview of ColdFusion 8, and Tim (in his new role)...
We (Tim, Kristen, and I) are in Stuttgart for a few hours, presenting CF8 to a local group. We arrived a little late, but the crowd waited patiently, and then sat for almost 3 hours as we walked through ColdFusion 8 features. The response was great, and our Intergral hosts were more than gracious...
I spent the day in Italy today, presenting a full day seminar (with Tim Buntel and Ted Patrick) at Pavia (near Milan). Kristen Schofield, ColdFusion's new product Manager (who promises me she'll be blogging shortly), is also here getting to know the locals. They stayed here after MAX Europe last...
Just two this week, and both are requests from recruiters for unnamed clients: Brooksource (Farmington Hills, MI) is looking for a senior ColdFusion developer. Requirements include at least 3 years of experience with ColdFusion MX or later, as well as experience with Oracle, and object oriented...
Long time Australian ColdFusion advocate, Kay Smoljak, has started blogging about ColdFusion on SitePoint. And her first post has already generated lots of comments worth reading. Keep an eye on this one!
"Thermo" was the talk of MAX, both in the US and in Europe. And the Thermo team is looking for an engineering manager and a QA manager (both positions are in San Francisco). Oh, and the Flex Builder team is also looking for an engineering manager .
We're in the middle of the MAX Awards here at MAX Europe in Barcelona. Next up is Sneak Peeks (I am going to be presenting the CF/AIR sneak), and then comes the party. In addition to the keynote yesterday, and the Sneak Peek momentarily, I also presented a hands-on ColdFusion Powered Ajax session,...
A ColdFusion user asked me (at MAX) how to get ColdFusion's Ajax calls to use POST instead of the default GET. The answer, courtesy of ColdFusion team member Rakshith, is to use to define the proxy CFC, and then use the setHTTPMethod() method to set the method type. Here is Rakshith's example:...
MAX Europe started this morning, and it's great to see the crowd and feel the enthusiasm, especially as this is the first MAX here (prior attempts never materialized). The opening keynote here starts at 11:30am local time (any minute) - the stage is ready (and massive), the room is full, the music...
I just arrived in Barcelona for MAX Europe 2007 - I got here later than I had hoped, but, I'm here, and we're now prepping for tomorrow's opening keynote. The venue is right off the beach, and my hotel room overlooks the Mediterranean Sea to the east. Not that I expect to do much sightseeing, but...
