A couple of new ColdFusion team blogs for you to watch - as though there isn’t enough Scorpio buzz out there already!
Rakshith, a great guy who worked with me on the AJAX stuff, has got his blog up - he’ll be writing up new Scorpio features that he worked on, as will I, in the days to come.
Ahmad Patan, a member of our QA team, has started the CFPDF blog, to talk about new PDF manipulation and PDF form processing features in Scorpio. The QA guys pair up with development team members right from design time, so they end up knowing the features inside out, upside down, sideways, backward, and any other way you’d like to write your CFML code.

Will CF 8 be worth the upgrade for most? I plan I trying it out. I would like to know more about the PDF functions. I know with CFDOCUMENT you can create a PDF now with CF7. I am looking forward to seeing the AJAX stuff also.

Admittedly, I have a strong bias… But yes, I think CF8 is definitely worth the upgrade. It is one of the most feature-rich releases of CF ever, with something for just about everyone.
