ColdFusion Open-Source Update - March 16, 2009

Two new releases and three updates released this week. You may have noticed something different about this week's post. You are quite observant; I did indeed write this on a shiny new MacBook Pro. Thanks, yes, it is quite nice though I am not entirely used to the new mouse and keep right clicking when I mean to click and drag. This post has a shiny new unibody construction...yeah, it sounds fancy but the post isn't any more informative however.
