The planned dates are: November 20th: Sydney November 21st: Brisbane November 22nd: Melbourne November 27th: Perth It's been a...
I am in Amsterdam's Schiphol airport, about to head back to the U.S. After last night's Brussels event we drove for 2 hours to The Hague for the Netherlands Adobe Business Exchange . Again, I presented ColdFusion 8 to a very appreciate, interactive, and engaged crowd (very few of whom are yet...
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.

The MAX Europe "ColdFusion In Europe" BOF ( mentioned previously ) will be Monday evening, 7:00pm-8:00pm, in Room 121. I hope to see you there.
Our "pals" at SYS-CON have done it again. Just when I thought they had displayed the utmost in immaturity and unprofessionalism, they manage to make even bigger fools of themselves. And no, I am not going to link to specific posts or pages, and I ask that comments refrain from the same -...
