Railo is an Adobe Coldfusion alternative that, at some level, is free and soon will have a open source edition. If you live in and or around the Baltimore Metro you should defenitely make your way down for the meeting, there is usualy free food and drink, and always great conversation amongst Adobe professionals.
Here is the announcement of this months meeting, also, don't forget to
register for the event on the BAUG website.
This month's meeting is being moved to July 30th at 6:00 PM. Bob
Clingan hooked us up with a special guest speaker and we are more than
willing to accomodate his schedule (many thanks Bob). This meeting is
sure to fill up quick, so be sure to RSVP on our web site ASAP
(www.baltimore-aug.org)!
Gert Franz, CEO of Railo and member of the recently founded CFML
advisory committee, will be visiting to present an overview of Railo,
and what the advantages of using Railo are for CFML developers. He'll
also be talking about the upcoming open-source conversion of Railo,
and what that means for the community and the developers. Of course,
Gert will have some free versions of the Railo software to hand out,
and some other goodies as well.
Railo (www.railo-technologies.com) is a CFML engine that runs on a
wide variety of Java servlet engines, and provides a cost-effective,
high performance alternative to using Adobe's ColdFusion engine. As
you may have heard, at the Scotch on the Rocks ColdFusion conference
in Scotland in June, Railo announced that they are partnering with
JBoss to convert their software to a completely free, open-source
offering.
