assured a room to hold our CFUG meetings starting on July 6th, 2007
with the crew from Railo CFML engine, http://www.railo.ch. They will
be here from Germany to demonstrate Railo and all its features. It
will also be a great meeting to get our CFUG organized, see what
direction we want to take and the presentations we would like to see.
Hope to see you there and get the first official IECFUG off the
ground.
The Pomona location is a great central location for both the IE and LA area. So if you are in the LA area and not part of the IECFUG mailing list or considering where to go, please go do so by registering via the mailing list.

So watch out for the upcoming updates this week for both framework and Dashboard. Again, I am really happy to say that this project has crossed the year marker and with incredible numbers. Please leave a comment about your success with ColdBox, how it can be better or if you are interested on it. This next year will be filled with even more excitement, new features and YES PRESENTATIONS, I have had no time for this, but will soon free up for it. As always, please contact me if you would like to contribute to this project.
I am so used to modeling in UML now that it is a REQUIREMENT for any project, no matter how small or how big. In that sense, some of you may be beginning to see the benefits of object modeling and may wonder how in the world to start. Well, I found a great article in the NetBeans website that touches on why to use UML and provides some great samples. Although it is directed to the Java developer, I believe a ColdFusion developer can gain some benefit from it.
