Our February meeting will feature the author & maintainer of such prolific projects as: ColdFire, JSONUtil, and the CF9-compatible HTML5 Websocket Gateway (among many others), Nathan Mische. He'll be introducing us to a new validation framework he's written, called simply, "OK!". He describes it as "a ColdFusion 9 ORM entity validation framework inspired by Hyrule."

Please RSVP here so that we can get an accurate head count for food.

Just a reminder that our next meeting is tonight! If you haven't already, please take a quick look at PeepCode and/or UGTV and have at least one nominee in mind before you arrive.

Happy 2012, everyone! We're going to start off our meetings for the year with something a little different. This month we'll be watching a recorded presentation. "Of what?" you ask? That will be decided at the start of the meeting with a quick vote. We're going to watch a recording either from Peepcode or UGTV. Both have a variety of recordings available on a huge swath of topics. Please have a look at them and come with at least 1 suggestion in mind. We'll spend a minute or two discussing the nominees and then vote and dive right in.

As usual, please RSVP here so that we know how much food to order. The location is still pending but I will update this post once I know exactly what room we'll be in.
