I'm not the official spokesperson, but I doubt any decision has been made one 
way or another. We are not that organized. (Don't tell Dan or Jim I said that.)

A big factor is when our wonderful host, North Carolina State University 
College 
of Textiles, can schedule the facility for our use. Another big factor is 
whether 
Adobe will continue to support ColdFusion. (Note the very effective use of a 
highly volatile diversionary tactic there. ;)

Thanks from all of us in TACFUG for the show of support.

Too bad the round trip flight from Albany, NY is about $600...

 But will NCDevCon be taking place this year? I've heard different stories.

I am not involved in the conference aside from attending, so I do not know
what their plans are for 2012.  As an attendee I certainly hope they choose
to continue with NCDevCon if it's feasible to do so.  The College of
Textiles was am amazing host location and everyone involved with the
conference did a wonderful job.  If they do run it again in
2012 I will definitely be making the trip.

I was able to attend OFCS last year and it was great. I *really* appreciated 
the single track approach. It was nice to be able to see all the available 
content. Even the content I thought I would only be mildly interested in ended 
up being fascinating. I learned a lot and I'm sure those who attend will also. 
Well worth the cost if you can make it.

Hi folks,

I know http://OpenCFSummit.org has been mentioned a few times on this list.  I 
just wanted to share that the schedule is up and registrations are pouring in: 
http://opencfsummit.org/index.cfm/schedule/

Also wanted to clarify that the reason this conference is so cheap is obviously 
because of our amazing sponsors - but the idea behind it is to grow our 
community by trying to attract programmers from other technologies.

This year's conference has a strong emphasis on options for super affordable 
Cloud Computing hosting options and getting ColdFusion programmers more 
involved in Civic Hacktivism and the whole Gov 2.0 movement.

For $72 you know this isn't one of those cruise ship conferences, where you 
can wander around lost for days.  http://OpenCFSummit.org is all about keeping 
things intimiate and attendee-centric, with only one track of sessions, tons of 
free training, a great hackfest, lightening talks, unconference space and more.

Forgive the sales pitch - but since CFUnited shut down, our community just has 
so few opportunities to get together and grow.  Sure there's the amazing 
http://cfobjective.com/

I just wanted to make sure folks hadn't missed this one...

Thanks!

 community just has so few opportunities to get together and
 grow.  Sure there's the amazing http://cfobjective.com/

Unfortunately I won't be able to make OpenCF Summit, but I am
beginning to plan for cf.Objective.  I also wanted to mention NCDevCon
while we're on the topic (a regional ColdFusion conference).  It was
only $70 and provided world-class value, so if you're on the fence
don't shrug off a conference like OpenCF Summit just because it's
inexpensive to register.
