Precia: It was a good meeting with a good turn out. I know that the AFFUG has settled on the 3rd Wednesday of the month to meet. I am interested in attending, but my church choir meets on Wednesday. I'm already missing the first Wednesday for ACFUG and really can't afford to miss another rehearsal every month. Would AFFUG consider meeting on another night of the week? If not, I may split my time between the two groups.
P.S. We just launched our third Flex/Flash application.

The new location was a collaboration of FusionLink and echo?eleven to provide a comfortable meeting location. Thank you John Mason of FusionLink for providing the meeting facilities and Scott Talsman of echo?eleven for extending hospitality to our members mingling in the echo?eleven facilities. New Atlanta of the BlueDragon fame provided a grand prize this past meeting with a free license of BlueDragon 6.2 JX server. Congratulations to Teddy Payne for winning! ACFUG extends a special thank you to Josh Adams and Richard Baker from New Atlanta for taking the time to help make our first meeting of the year more enjoyable and helping our group learn about the new features of BlueDragon 7. New Atlanta did not stop there as they sponsored the after party that compromised of adult beverages and snacks. Andy Powell of Universal Mind demonstrated yet another way that ColdFusion can be used in an AJAX based project from Adobe called Spry. Many of our members have heard of AJAX and Spry in recent days, but an actual testament of the usefulness of Spry reinforces a way to discern how and when to use Spry.
