BlackBerry Playbook + Adobe Air by Kalen Gibbons
Kalen

will be speaking about mobile application development with Adobe AIR.

He'll discuss how Adobe AIR makes it easy to develop a single

application for multiple platforms, including Android and iOS. In

particular, he will talk about his recent experience with developing an

application for the BlackBerry playbook. There will be a short

demonstration of the application and a Q & A period.

This is an open question to bring in your comments about source code deployment.  There are several ways and tools and I am very interested in your approaches.  What are your deployment flows? What tools do you use? How do you integrate git/svn into the mix? How do you deal with tiers?

Anyways, I will write about my personal experiences, but wanted to kick off a conversation on deployment strategies for ColdFusion.

Just a mention that ColdBox Platform 3.0.0, CacheBox 1.2.0 and WireBox 1.1.1 have all been released!!  What a Wednesday, March 3.0, 2011.  So get your dose of ColdFusion today: http://blog.coldbox.org/post.cfm/coldbox-platform-3-0-0-released

Thanks to the team for such hard work!

This is something I want to blog in order to save it for posterity so I don’t go crazy looking for this. I have a remote branch I committed but I need to remove it for whatever reason, how do I do this with git?

You do this in two easy steps:

1. Remove the local branch either through your favorite GUI or via: git branch -d “branch name”
2. Push the removed branch to the remote origin: git push origin :refs/heads/”branch name”

The key here is that you push a non-existent branch, so it basically removes it from the remote repository. That’s it!
