OpenCF Summit 2012 - Why You Should Attend 5 days ago

Last year I attended the first OpenCF Summit and I thought it was a great event for a number of reasons. It's back again this year, Feburary 24-26, in the same great location and it's just $72 for three days of collaborative education. What makes this conference so unique in the CFML world is …

Java, CFML and Frameworks last week

I get a lot of emails asking questions. Some of them come in directly to me, some via the Contact page on my blog. With the latter, developers have to provide an email address. Most developers seem capable of doing this, but every now and then someone fills out the form with a bunch of "demands" …

World Singles at Clojure/West last week

I was very pleased today to get confirmation that my team are all going to Clojure/West in San Jose in March! We've been a CFML house for a decade but we're using Clojure more and more on the back end to provide a high-performance, concurrency-safe foundation for our application. Back in …

Speaking about "Boring Stuff" at Clojure/West 3 weeks ago

I was very pleased to get an email last night notifying me that my session proposal has been accepted for Clojure/West in March! Due to the number of high-quality submissions, I'll get a 25 minute slot instead of a 50 minute slot so that'll be quite a challenge and I'll have to narrow the focus …

A look back at 2011 last month

In years past, I have gone back over each month of my blog and posted a review of the year based on what I've been posting during the year. I skipped that for 2009 and 2010 for various reasons but decided to reinstate it this year because 2011 has been a very different year for me. I left …

FW/1 2.0 Released last month

After a long period of testing out in the wild FW/1 2.0 reached RC2 back in October and no further bugs have been reported. Only documentation remained and that has now been completed. FW/1 2.0 is gold and can be downloaded from FW/1's RIAForge site . Happy Holidays!

Testing your project against multiple versions of Clojure last month

As Clojure continues to evolve, it's a good idea to ensure your projects work with multiple versions of Clojure so that you are prepared for the future. Luckily, Leiningen makes that easy with a plugin called lein-multi which allows you to specify multiple sets of project dependencies and run …
