Apologies all for the long silence - after I got back from a perfectly lovely holiday in Goa, work got pretty busy, especially with all the last minute preparations for MAX.
I arrived in Las Vegas last night. A little early, perhaps, but those of us who are presenting from the CF team decided to get here a day before MAX kicks off so we could beat the jet lag in time for our sessions. Being a night owl is great in Vegas, I know, but having my mind shut down thinking it’s time for bed won’t be so good when I have to deliver my session, Unlocking the ColdFusion Server Black Box. For those of you who are here, do attend it if you can - I’ll be previewing some new CF tools, and I’d love to get your feedback.
The best part about this for me is that I’ll finally be able to move some of the stuff I’ve been working on for Scorpio out of stealth mode. I’ll be writing more about it here, so those of you can’t make it out to MAX can get an idea of some of the things the CF team has been throwing in the pot for Scorpio.
I’ll be at the reception tomorrow evening, of course, so if you’re here, do come by and say hello.

Thanks. I was in the session today, since your other session coincides with my MAXUP session. I thought you did an awesome job. Man, people really through some specific scenarios at you, and I think you did a good job handling them.

MAX 2006 - Day 1 Complete…
Day one is finally over, and despite my slow start, I think that I got a full day’s worth out of it. I talked about it earlier, but the Getting Started with Apollo by Mike Chambers was really worth it…….
