Petitioning for Speakers for Melbourne CFCAMP

Melbourne CFCAMP is looming on the 22nd of November and we're in the need for speakers!

Topics can include anything from case studies, to frameworks, to development techniques, to pretty much anything that is related to ColdFusion!

Speaking time is 30 minutes long (although if you need more time, it can be arranged).

So if you have something you can present, or even an idea of something you can present, please write it up on the WIKI page, and share it with the rest of us.

Remember, CFCAMP is for the CF community, so the more your help out, the more your help your community.

If you aren't going to speak, don't forget to register for the event, it should be a great day, and the venerable Ben Forta will be down to join us well!

May experience some technical difficulties

Just a quick note - I'll be moving this site, and transfer-orm.com to a VPS over the next few days, so I apologise if there is any downtime.

We should be back up again shortly.

Coldbox

ColdBox is a proven event-driven CFC based ColdFusion Framework,
specifically designed for high availability web applications. The
purpose behind ColdBox was to create a fast & stable development
methodology that could be shared among several developers. It makes
use of an MVC (Model View Controller) design pattern implemented via
CFC's. It uses event handler CFC's that hold all the code necessary to
prepare views, call model CFC's or a business layer (Soap/ws/xml/J2EE)
and render views (HTML).

If you are going to attend, please RSVP to: mark [dot] mandel [at] gmail [dot] com

Only those that RSVP are eligible for the door prizes, so make sure you apply!

See the CFUG Melbourne Calendar at:
http://www.cfcentral.com.au/Events/index.cfm

Or add to your Google Calendar - search for 'CFUG Melbourne'.

As per usual, we'll grab pizza during the evening, so we have
something to scoff down!

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Should I run ColdFusion 8 on Ubuntu Server on my new VPS?

I've been given the opportunity to have my VPS where I am currently hosting, with the free choice of OS, and pretty much any set up I want.

My initial thought was to set it up on Ubuntu server, simply because, since switching to Ubuntu as my primary OS, I am far more familiar with it as a Linux platform than I ever could be on a RedHat based one.

Now, I know that Ubuntu is not a supported platform, however -

1) I've been running CF8 on Ubuntu for development, and had 0 issues, from installation to use.
2) It's my VPS, so I'm happy to have a bit of an experiment.
3) I really don't feel like learning CentOS (Yeah.. I know.. lazy).

What do you guys reckon?  Anyone been running CF8 on a Debian based distro, and faced any issues? Can anyone think of any issues that could trip me up?

Javaloader v0.5 Released

Here is the release of JavaLoader, version 0.5.

It pretty much does exactly the same thing that the previous versions did, however, it now works in ColdFusion 8, when the setting 'Disable access to internal ColdFusion Java components' is turned on, as it uses its own JavaProxy CFC, which may often be turned on on shared hosts.

That's really about it, nothing more interesting than that.

Download JavaLoader v0.5 from here.
