How about a discount on it for those of use that already ordered (and received) the hard copy? BTW, my book arrived very quickly. I ordered it the morning after it was announced.

The ebook is 39.99, but I still don't know how to offer discounts under the ebook system. Once I do, if they offer discounts, I could honor them.

However, I have no control over it now.

This is really good news, I would still like a hard copy so may wait until I can get it from the UK Amazon store, but thanks for this option. :)

Hi Luis,

Thank you for the book.

I have a few questions: 1. If I purchase the eBook now and a discount code is available later can I claim it? 2. When version 3 is available as an eBook, will people who bought this one get a discount? 3. If I buy this book can I use the version 3 of the framework or it will jut confuse me?

Thanks

Mike once I get the ability to offer discount codes I will blog about it and you must send me the original invoice and I will honor the discount.

As for discounts for version 3 the same will apply. However as of now I am still waiting to see if it is possible on the ebook versions.

Version 3 is a progression of the platform and still in active development. The core concepts remain the same. The differences can be seen in the compatibility guide. However I say that 85-90% of 2.6 applies to version 3.

From Legacy Risk to Modern Agility: A Phased Modernization Roadmap for CFML Teams

From Legacy Risk to Modern Agility: A Phased Modernization Roadmap for CFML Teams

Many organizations running CFML applications today face the same challenge.

Their systems still work.

They support core business processes.

They generate revenue.

But at the same time, those platforms are increasingly exposed to risk.

Unsupported runtimes, operational fragility, security exposure, and difficulty integrating with modern systems are becoming more common in environments still running older versions of Adobe ColdFusion or Lucee.

The quest...
