With the upcoming conferences you have the great opportunity to meet the guys from Railo. So who is going to be where?

I am happy to say that at this year's CeBIT in Hannover, Germany we are joining the stand of our partners Contens and Intergral.
We are very proud that both Contens and Intergral are increasingly relying on Railo as a CFML engine. If you like to visit us, we have many new things we can show you and we might even help you with some problems. If you need any assistance from the best Railo programmers come see us in hall 6 stand J32. On one of the days Mark Drew will be there as well.

We're looking forward to seeing you in Hannover in 2 March! If you want to meet us there either contact us or fill out the form on the contens homepage.

Gert, Mark, Peter and Sean will all be at cf.Objective() 2009 this week. Mark, Peter and Sean are all speaking (on non-Railo-specific topics) but all four of us will be available to answer any questions you have about Railo as well as the support and consulting packages that we offer. I expect you'll be able to find us in the bar every evening - and the opening reception on Wednesday evening - but we should be easy enough to find wherever we are throughout the conference! cf.Objective() promises to be an awesome conference and we're all looking forward to the great sessions and to meeting everyone and hearing your Railo success stories!

Yesterday I was able to present the latest developments and Railo things in an online CFUG meetup presentation hosted by Charlie Arehart.

Finally after 6 long years there is a CFML conference in Germany again. The basic schedule is like that of "A wee dram of Scotch in London" this year. 7 Speakers for one day. If you like to read more about the event, just go to the official (Railo powered :-) website.

I am very glad that we from Railo were able to bring two very famous CFML people to the CFCAMP. Luis Majano, author of Coldbox and Mark Drew, well known to all of you from CFEclipse and the Reactor framework where he is leading the development at the moment. We hope to see as many as possible in Munich next week.

With the new extension manager we are implementing for Railo 3.1 Open Source many problems with installing applications or Railo Extensions should be a thing of the past.

Sitting with Michael at New York JFK airport. We are discussing about the trip and about the new things he and his team face once we're back.

In this blog entry I am writing a short recap of our first week of our Railo road show - 2008.

What an odyssey. Everything worked well, got to the airport in time and then it started. I had to run from one check in counter to the next and back to the first. So after finally getting to the gate ready for boarding, one of the ground crew members told us that the flight is delayed due to a strike of the ground and catering crew at Frankfurt airport. I notified Donald immediately and hoped for the best.
After a delay of two hours, the plane was finally boarded and we took off 2:30 hours later than scheduled. So I was arriving just in time in Atlanta and was able to pass the passport control and the customs quite fast, just to find out that the plane I was supposed to take down to Tampa was broken and therefore canceled. Great.
So what to do? Directly fly to Detroit? Not possible since all flights are fully booked. So I will fly down to Tampa, do NO presentation (which I am really sorry for!!!) but at least meet some of the people from Jagged Peak the ones that build Edge the CFML shop software Davidoff uses. If you are in the Tampa area and you were supposed to attend today's presentation, I am really sorry for the cancellation, if you want to complain, you can do it here: www.lufthansa.com for the strike and www.delta.com for the broken plane.
Sorry again folks. And many thanks to Donald Bickel from the Tampa CFUG for all the help and support.

As you might have already read, our US tour is starting next week in Tampa Florida. We have a really tough schedule but I am really looking forward to it.
