Forget what you think you know about CFML - Twin Cities Language User Group

On Thursday evening (Nov 12, 2009 @ 5:30) I will be speaking to the Twin Cities Language User Group about CFML.

The Twin Cities Language User Group is, to me, a unique group. It is not focused on a particular language or family of languages, its concept seems to be to bridge the divide between languages and to expose developers to new ideas and methodologies. It seemed like a perfect place to pitch CFML and show other developers just how great CFML is.

I'm interested in this. I just found out there's a build guild and a podcamp in Pittsburgh area. I'll be focusing my efforts there in 2010.

Very cool! I just became a member of a web development (not CF specific) meetup group up where I live and I've been thinking it would be a good idea to give a talk like yours to them to dispel a lot of the myths about CFML. I'm looking forward to seeing your slides.

If I didn't already have plans tonight I would have loved to see this presentation. :(

I enjoyed the presentation, Dean. Can you post a link to the CF view plug-in to Grails and/or tell me where I can get more info?

Also, I'd like access to the numbers you presented (numbers of developers, etc.).

@Bill - Thanks for the comment. The announcement of the CFML for Grails plugin proof of concept is here: http://mpwoodward.posterous.com/its-alive-cfml-plu...

I will be posting my slides from the preso in the next couple of days after I get it cleaned up and converted to another format(not Keynote). If you need it sooner, email me using my contact for, or my email address if you have it and I will export a PDF for you.
