I just want to inject my 2 cents.  I did the "Red Sky" migration on our
test server and it went smoothly, but you do have to wait a while in
order for the migration to take effect.  I'm a fusionscript fanatic, and
right after the migration I tried running a known working CF/FS
application and received an error.  The error is irrelavent, I just
didn't wait long enough.  I sort of panicked, lol, and let Nate know
about it and he was waiting from Macromedia.  He had me get a hold of a
Macromedia tech support guy and in a round about way, because I had
trouble understanding the guy, I had to run my CF/FS application and it
ran just fine, oops he he.  

Anyways, I was curious since I've read some really good reviews about
MX6.1.  I created a test application which was a simple query output, oh
of about 106,943 records.  I limited the records to 37,262, odd I know,
and ran the application on 2 servers, CF5.0 and CFMX6.1.  CF5.0 ran the
application in 26 seconds and CFMX6.1 ran it in 7 seconds.  Correct if
I'm wrong, but that's a significant change in speed!

I wouldn't consider myself a professional speaker either. :)
I think I tend to ramble through things rather quickly and
in a somewhat "disshevelled"(sp?) way and with language
that's not very newbie friendly. I think I tend to perform/present
better in writing.

That being said I believe I'm scheduled to speak again at
the CFUG on the new features and enhancements in MX 6.1 (Red Sky). Joe?
What's the date for that? I think I need to read up on it myself -- I
know some of the details, but I wasn't involved in the beta and haven't
installed the latest version myself yet.

And I do have _some_ knowledge of how Flash and CF
communicate (or how they can communicate)... I used the new Flash MX
loadvars parameter and objects in my chat room so that it would be
compatible with previous versiosn of CF (I think I've got one person
running it on 4.01 even oddly enough), and have never gotten around to
writing a Flash Remoting version for MX. If there's interrest (although
there are probably plenty of folks here who could present on it, and
likely better than myself, since it's mostly an ActionScript thing and
Flash is further down my skills list from CF, SQL and JavaScript), I'd
be willing to give a beginners tutorial on that as well.

boy that piece of software needs a revision. :)


p.s. Thanks for the presentation Clint, it was very informative.


Also, thanks to Karen for the Dreamweaver presentation.

I know Pablo's looked into Dreamweaver and tried to use it a few times
and been stuck on how different it is from CF Studio. I still haven't
really tried to migrate away from CF Studio 4.5.2 except for a brief
stint with jEdit which I abandoned in spite of it being really well
conceived for general UI flakeyness. I guess that's what tends to happen
with open source Java projects. And a brief stint with CF Studio 5 which
I abandoned as a result of a bug which causes files to be saved to the
wrong local folder if you use
ctrl+s to save them. I hit ctrl+s so frequently that I often
don't even realize when I'm doing it, so it was just too dangerous to me
to be potentially overwriting files, etc... so I had to go back to
4.5.2. Apparently it's a really obscure bug and I'm just one of the very
few folks who've noticed and been affected by it. One of these days I
probably will eventually migrate to Dreamweaver, I just don't know when.
