Just a quick note that I will be at Adobe Max from Sunday onwards.  I am really excited to be able to participate in this year's Max.  Last year I was only able to be there for one day, but this time I will be able to do the majority of the event.  Also, I will be presenting in the Unconference on MockBox, a new way to unit test with mocks!

Mocking and testing are dear to my heart, so I am very excited to be promoting testing and mocking practices.  So if you are  unit testing novice or guru, be sure to stop by.  This presentation will require your participation!

So if you will be at Max, hope to see you there!

Showing that here at ColdBox Headquarters we have fun when we can!

Just a reminder that Ortus Solutions is hosting a $75 Amazon gift card contest.  All you have to do is create a cool looking skin for CacheBox, the enteprise ColdFusion caching engine and aggregator.  That’s it!  Check it out!

Just a reminder that I will be doing a 3 day hands on training 3 days before Adobe Max here in Los Angeles, California.  This training is our kickoff 3.0.0 trainings and it promises to be awesome. So if you are in town and would like to attend our ColdBox training, then use this cool discount link.  Hurry up now as only a few seats are left.

As you might have noticed from the ColdBox migrations, we are moving to github.  I took the decision to migrate our source code over for several reasons that you git fans might already know.  However, not only did I move because of the version control system, but because it allows for easier community involvement in the projects.  This to me was key.  So instead of tons of headaches with SVN patches, just fork the dang thing, patch it and send me a request.  So hopefully, this will allow for more community involvements. 

I am also moving my personal projects to github and you can find them on my personal space.

Just a reminder that the latest milestone release is now out and available. Read all about it in the ColdBox blog.  This includes tons of fixes and updates to the core, but the best thing about it is the release of CacheBox.

Next week is CFUnited 2010 and I am super excited about it.  I have always enjoyed CFUnited and this year I am staying for the whole thing, so I am happy.  I will also be taking several books with me (ColdBox Books) that is.  So if you want to buy-win a hard copy ColdBox Definitive Guide, then look for me, ping me via twitter @lmajano or just shout at the conference. 

Just a reminder that our registration for our ColdBox training closes in a few days and you don't want to miss out. So here is a super duper discount code: superweek. Take advantage and register now, we will be covering the up and coming 3.0.0 release and some great goodies.

Just a quick announcement that we have slashed the prices for the ColdBox eBooks and you can now purchase them for only $29.99.  The new eBook also is an enhanced PDF that is more portable and printable.  We are also working hard on the iPad/iBooks version, so stay tuned!
