Regretably Michael's site is down for rework... but the message says relaunch Real Soon Now. I worked through the first five installments and I believe it's worth going back there till it is back on line. Good step-by-step, good foundation, MORE, MICHAEL, MORE! Can't wait for installment six, and for the rest of the community, for the site to be back on the air. HEY LOUIS, could you talk to Michael about hosting the tut's as like a mirror? You could stay one tut behind him so folks would still go to his site for the latest, but could get a taste from your site if/when his is down?

Luis, I was wondering if your book has step-by-step on how to build a fully functional Coldbox application?
