ColdFusion Open-Source Update - December 18
Posted on Dec 18, 2006
While this was a relatively quiet week, we did get two new projects as well as an assortment of updates and announcements. As a side-note, since next Monday is Christmas, I will be taking my first week off from these updates since I started them back in April. Hope everyone has a happy holiday, and, if you happen to be in or around Boston tomorrow night, please join me at the "semi-official" Boston CFUG social for some holiday imbibing :)
