ColdFusion Open-Source Update - November 25, 2009
Posted on Nov 25, 2009
One new release and two updates this week in ColdFusion open source. This week was mostly about the 1.0 release of ColdFusion on Wheels and a bunch of announcements and tutorials. Hopefully everyone stateside will enjoy their Thanksgiving holiday but, more importantly, will grab some serious bargains on Black Friday.
