Adobe announced yesterday the launch of ColdFusion 8. Next week’s meeting will be a launch event to mark the occasion. Here’s what’s in store:

• We’ll watch a CF8 Deep Dive recorded specially for Adobe user groups by Ben Forta, Senior Technical Evangelist for Adobe.
• Prizes prizes prizes! One lucky person will win a copy of ColdFusion 8 Standard, valued at US $1299! We’ll also be raffling off a free admission to the FITC Winnipeg Roadshow, courtesy of FITC. And, there will be other little goodies to give away.
• Pizza and soft drinks will be provided.

The meeting is on Thursday, August 9, at 7:00 p.m., room W411, Red River College, Princess Street campus. If you can make it, please let me know by emailing me at darren@flashinthepeg.org so I can make sure there are enough refreshments for everyone.

I hope to see you next Thursday!

Our next meeting is set for Thursday, August 9, and is going to be all about ColdFusion 8! The meeting will feature a presentation recorded by Ben Forta, Adobe’s Senior Technical Evangelist. Whether you’re new to ColdFusion or have already tried out the public betas on Adobe Labs, I think you’ll find this an interesting meeting!

The meeting will be held on Thursday, August 9 at 7:00 p.m. in our usual room W411 of Red River College, Princess Street campus.
