I'd love to see both high level and in depth articles about interfacing with other
systems using file formats.
GEDCom, ARCInfo, MP3, PDF, Quark, XML, DTS manipulation, ZIP, USPS, UPS, RSS...
And how to apply standards to CF development (UML, W3C validation...)

What would I like to see from FA? Ideally, I'd like to see articles which
tackle things like best practices, howtos on interesting topics, and nice
theoretical articles on things like OOP via CFCs.
When theoretical things are discussed, I'd like to see real-world (although
probably simplified) examples. When practical things are discussed, it'd be
really cool if there, for example, links to UDFs used in the article or for
related things on CFLib or MM's DevEx (or whatever it is now).
Hmm. That's it off the top of my head.

: Ben,
:
: All of those sound great! Would you like to do a series on
: Regular Expressions?
:
: Don't worry -- Michael and I are qualified to edit it. : )
: Michael's the king of regular expressions.
:
: Let's talk about this offlist.
:
: Incidentally, I am interested and open to all sorts of articles,
: particularly on CFMX and Flashcomm, my two favorite programs.
: Also: Flash for the CF programmer and Java/OOP programming
: concepts as applied to CFMX.
:
: Part of what's been holding me up with FA is (now that I
: recognize it) a severe depression, having to do with the back
: problems I've developed and a sense of the sheer amount of work
: that's necessary these days to do FA. If I had someone who could
: help me with the editorial work, I'm sure I could get it out on a
: more frequent basis. So I got into this very paralyzing
: depression: My God, look at how much work I have ... (Do anything
: but that work because it's just too much.)
:
: The other part of my depression has to do with my perspective on
: the uniqueness of what we do. When I started this magazine, what
: we were doing was fresh and new and had not been done before for
: CF. I had a sense that what I was doing was unique. Somewhere, I
: lost that sense. I'm sure that what we're doing is still
: valuable, but to keep me going, I need to have that sense of
: excitement back. I'm working on it.
:
: So what would you guys like to see in FA that you don't see
: elsewhere? What would you like to see FA evolve into?
