First of all, let me apologize for a bad connection and even worse my fan in my mac blew up, so It felt like I was inside of a turbine. Anyways, the presso did not go as I planned, but hey, things happen. We will try again in about two weeks, and hopefully it will work better. For now, you can find the presentations posted up on the wiki if you would like a sneek peek. http://ortus.svnrepository.com/coldbox/trac.cgi#MediaPresentations Again, I apologize, and we will have better luck next time.

Introducing the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter: Dynamic JVM Templating for Spring
Spring Boot developers know the pain of evaluating view technologies. Thymeleaf is great — until you need more expressiveness. FreeMarker is powerful — until the syntax fights you. What if you could write templates in a dynamic JVM language that gives you the full power of the platform, feels natural, and requires zero setup to integrate?
Meet the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter.

Why Swiss Banks Are Modernizing CFML Platforms Without Rewrites
The growing need to evolve legacy financial platforms safely
Many Swiss banks and financial institutions still operate important systems built on ColdFusion and CFML platforms.
These systems manage a wide range of functions, including:
- internal banking workflows
- reporting systems
- client portals
- data integration platforms

In many cases, thes...

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy
Many ColdFusion environments operate in a reactive mode without realizing it.
Everything seems fine… until something breaks.
A server crashes.
Performance drops suddenly.
An integration stops working.
A security audit reveals missing patches.
At that point the response is urgent:
“Can someone help us fix this now?”
Emergency support is sometimes unavoidable. But when reactive intervention becomes the norm, it usually means something deep...

Thanks for all your effort Luis, even though the preso didn't go as planned the PDF you posted pointed out some great new features. I'm already making heavy use of the interceptors and the coldboxproxy (from Flex) and can't thank you enough for both! I had started with Flex/Coldbox and a separate common model with a transfer config but driving all the remote access through Coldbox (w/ Coldspring / Transfer and common security, logging and state management facilities) has made things MUCH easier. On the Flex side I've been really happy (and productive) using PureMVC (especially vs. trying Cairngorm).
Thanks again!

Thanks Chris!! That is great stuff!! Hopefully you can post your results on this and give people insight on the Flex/ColdBox integration.
Since this is so new, if you write something on it, I can publish it on the wiki. Thanks Chris!!
