This a correction and expansion to news I shared here yesterday: first, the next release of CF will be code-named Project Fortuna, not Athena. I will explain that in a moment. Second and more useful, I can also share more here about what’s planned for the new release. Read on for more.
This is not huge news but it’s news nonetheless that some might have missed. It seems the next release of CF (after CF2021 which was released in Nov 2020) will be code-named, “Project Athena Fortuna”. (Update: When I first posted this, I reported it would be Athena, based on the resources I quote below. I learned the next day that they had indeed changed it to Fortuna. For more, including more on what’s to come, see my updated post.) Read […]

I share here a table to try to make things clear.
[Originally published Jan 4, 2021. Updated July 14, 2021] As you may know, ColdFusion includes and embeds many libraries which help provide much of its functionality. Sometimes, people wonder what are the version numbers of those libraries, like jQuery, Solr, ehCache, and so on. And with each release I try to document these, first in my “Hidden Gems” talk on the new release (such as the one I did for CF2021 at the Nov 2020 online CF Summit). Then I […]

Did you know that the Online ColdFusion meetup has had 20 meetings this year? indeed our 278th talk on Dec 10? or that this is our 15th year? Let’s review the sessions this year.
I’ve not heard an official word on this from Adobe, but I can report that there are a few features that were “new” in CF2021, whose doc links HAD worked when the release first came out, but now the doc links get a 404. The implication seems to be that the feature, while still “in” CF currently, is one that’s been put “on hold” for some reason, as if perhaps we should not use them. Maybe they may be removed, […]

I don’t see that Adobe has offered a blog post here yet (though a new banner is showing it), so let me be the first to announce that ColdFusion 2021 has been released today, and yep, the name is indeed CF2021. I’m sure we’ll see posts from Adobe in due time. Until then (and even after), check out a blog post I did just hours before the release where I list the many, many new features, as I had gathered […]
