Jun 29, 2004 Meeting
Ben Forta:
The hottest name in the ColdFusion universe, Ben Forta, is planning a user group tour this June. Ben will be visiting over 25 Macromedia user groups during the month of June and our user group has been selected as one of the host cities! Ben will discuss ColdFusion, Flash, Flex, and will also provide a sneak peek of "Blackstone", the much-anticipated next release of ColdFusion. These will be the first public user group presentations covering Blackstone, so please join us for Ben's presentation to find out what all the buzz and excitement are about!
"Blackstone" will have a ton of really cool features designed to increase developer productivity (direct export to PDF/DOC/SWF) and user experience (Flash versions of CFFORM/CFGRID). I'm required to note that this information is preliminary, but was demo'd to us at the WWUG meeting on May 19.
<p>And now a note from Macromedia: "In appreciation of your continued support for Macromedia, ColdFusion, and the ColdFusion community, we are making this special offer to event participants. Attend a user group event taking part in the Summer 2004 tour, and your name will automatically be placed on the first round list of Blackstone beta application invitations."</p>
<p>Please reserve your space now! We will have all sorts of goodies to give away!</p>
