Planning for the NC ColdFusion conference is in high gear. We got excellent feedback on the conference dates/details from both speakers and from attendees. Most importantly, we realized our proposed date accidentally collided with the BFusion/BFlex conference. The Bfusion/BFlex conference is our inspiration for the NC conference. Bob Flynn, conference organizer, and others, have been very supportive of the NC Conference and we want to show our respect by not scheduling on the same day as them. Thus, after much discussion, consultation of calendars and the like, the new proposed schedule is Oct. 17-18th.
If we can make Oct. 17-18th work for the community, then we’ll move ahead with that. Our next chance would be to do something in the Spring. (Or raise the price and do it in the Bahamas in winter 🙂 )
The other option on the table is whether to provide a second day of training on the Adobe Flex framework. We propose a 6 hour Bring Your Own Laptop session targeted at beginner level Hands On Flex training. If you have some programming experience and want a hand making your first (or second) Flex application, this is for you. We’re looking for responses from the community of whether or not this is interesting.
So if you are considering attending/speaking, please let us know how you feel on the following:
- Does Oct. 17th – 18th work for your schedule?
- Are you interested in attending/speaking/teacher assisting the Oct. 18th 6 hour Bring Your Own Laptop session targeted at beginner level Hands On Flex training?
- Are you interested in more ColdFusion sessions on Oct 18th instead of Flex training?
Thanks for sharing your opinions and helping us tune this conference for the good of the community.
