Six new projects and three updates this week in ColdFusion open source. Sorry this post got a bit delayed but given the new job I haven't actually been able to completely set up my new laptop and I cannot imagine writing this post without the little AIR application I built to help anymore. Anyway, a number of interesting releases this week. Besides, the usual API wrapper components, Adam Tuttle's REST framework Taffy seemed very interesting and generated some buzz on Twitter.

Six new projects and seven updated ones in ColdFusion open source this week. I am enjoying my last official day of forced "vacation" before my official start at Adobe on Monday (which coincidentally is my birthday as well). Thankfully, the weather her in Boston is amazing this week and its been good to catch up on stuff. Mostly, I have been focused on RIA Unleashed (did I mention the contest?) as promoting a conference is the hardest part of running one, in my opinion. Anyway, enough about me...here's what happened this week in ColdFusion open source...

Six new projects, four updated ones and a ton of announcement, tutorials and presentations this week in ColdFusion open source. Its nice to be back from CFUnited (though only to find out I am on an unplanned two week unpaid vacation before starting at Adobe). One of the things that came up during Charlie Arehart's excellent second day keynote focused on the ColdFusion Community was my open source list. There is some confusion I think since I started the list before I started the update blog post. However, I noted to Charlie and others that essentially the list is dead and if I ever got around to updating my site design (its been 90% done for many months) it would be officially gone. The number of projects outgrew the usefulness of the list format in my opinion. However, this weekly update is alive and well as it has been for more than a few years.

Five new projects and two updates in ColdFusion open source this week. CFUnited, which begins tonight, completes what has been a crazy month for me and seen me criss-crossing the country for various trips. Nonetheless, this should be both fun and exciting and I expect many announcements to come (I personally recall Liz Frederick, Adam Lehman and Ray Camden have each hinted they have some announcements via Twitter). I, personally, have 2 sessions at CFUnited including an intro to Flex for CF developers and another about building ColdFusion Builder extensions. Anyway, for those of you who are attending, be sure to stop me and say hello.

Six new projects and seven updates in ColdFusion open source this week. Clearly this was a busy week. I think open source developers must have heard about my vacation next week and wanted to make sure I didn't forget about them whilst sunbathing in Miami or playing slots in Vegas. Perhaps it has more to do with the final CFUnited being right around the corner...nah, it's definitely about my vacation.
