CF Mumbo Jumbo

Following the success of the fishbowl panel at Adobe Max 2011, I will once again host an open community discussion starting Friday May 18 at 8:00 PM at the cf.Objective Hyatt Regency.

Matt Quackenbush of the cf.Objective(2012) steering committee joins me to talk about this premiere ColdFusion conference. This year there is great focus on js.Objective(2012) an entire track devoted Java Script, also there is still time (barely) to get in your Lightning Talk submissions. Matt explains what Lightning Talks are and why you should submit one.

Kurt Wiersma joins me on Bolt Talks to explain the mission and purpose of the Open CF Summit.  All users of ColdFusion regardless if they use Adobe ColdFusion, Railo or OpenBD CFML engines can benefit from attending the Open CF Summit.  He also explains the "open space unconference" style of the conference as well as the HackFest that will take place.

Mike Henke talks about trying to introduce continuous integration and unit testing into his legacy code. Taking a "baby steps" approach he tells how he sets up a continuous integration environment, to test code changes even without unit testing.

 Luis Majano is the founder of Ortus Solutions an Open Source Software company that is responisble for the ColdBox Framework, Wirebox, Forgebox & all things "Box." Their latest offering is an Enterprise level content management system, not surprisingly named: "ContentBox."  Luis joins me on BoltTalks to chat with me about ContentBox. 

 BlogCFC is the most widely know opensource blogging software written to run on ColdFusion.  The brain child of Ray "ColdFusion Jedi" Camden, BlogCFC has had some recent news regarding it's future.  Scott Stroz aka Boyzoid joins me on Bolt Talks to talk to me about these exciting changes.

Recording of the incredibly fun and enlightening Bolt  Talk Live: Fishbowl edition. It was held at the Adobe Max ColdFusion Unconference. Ben Forta was kind enough to join us. A fishbowl is an open discussion format that encouraged the audience to be on the panel. Topic: Best Practices of a Modern ColdFusion Developer.
