Hi, We pre-announced the free offering of ColdFusion to educational institutions for learning purposes at CFUnited. At CFUnited we mentioned that the formal announcement and program launch would be a few months out. We were so excited we couldn't wait to tell you. :) The offer isn't exclusive to universities. If you are using or teaching CF for learning purposes you will be able to take advantage. We're running on time with the program launch so keep your eye out, the official offer will be live *soon*.
