  I know you are new to Flex, but I would love to see another presentation on Flex, Coldfusion, and Livecycle.

  Hmm . . . how about CFCs?

• Comment 3 written by Steve Withington on 7 August 2008, at 7:32 AM

  

  Would you be able to share anything you've been working on at Broadchoice?

  Well that is my birthday so we could devote an hour to talking about me? HA!

  i'd like to see a step-by-step investigation into a performance or memory problem in a real CF App. Take the problem, use the tools we have available to us (server monitor, java profilers, whatever) and use it as a case study in this kind of problem solving.
  
  the presentations i've seen on this topic have been fairly general and have never gone completely from problem to solution.

  I second Lola and vote for CFC's. You did a presentation at MAX in 2005 on Application.cfc. How about updating that for CF8? Or maybe focus on remote calls and web services.

  I know it's not one of your usual topics, but I'd love to see more information about unit testing being put forth to the CF community. I think there's still a lot of developers out there who see it as more work than it's worth.

  I'm thinking CFCs or Unit Testing. CFCs would have to be a best practices type one though as my normal CFC preso is 3 hours long or so.
  
  Unit Testing would be nice. It's something I've never presented on, and frankly, I'm new to it. So that adds the extra layer of me being scared to death of royally screwing up, which just adds to your enjoyment. However - I need to check with Charlie as I believe they recently had one... lets see. Bill Shelton did DB pattern for UT. Well, that's not exactly UT 101. I'll chew on this a bit.

  I agree with the other who have suggested a topic on CFCs. I would specifically like to get more information on kind of a 'best practices' in structuring your applications in regard to CFCs. I've been using the DAO/Gateway/Service model. Is that the best??

  Java for Coldfusion developers.

• Comment 11 written by Raymond Camden on 7 August 2008, at 12:00 PM

  

  @Robert: I don't know Java. :) Well I can read it, but I don't "know" it.

• Comment 12 written by Esmeralda on 7 August 2008, at 12:50 PM

  

  I also say CFC's - and perhaps binding using them.

• Comment 13 written by Phillip Senn on 7 August 2008, at 2:17 PM

  

  I wouldn't mind some discussion as to why so many top ColdFusion developers are being hired by Broadchoice.
  What do they see in the company?
  Is Broadchoice something that an 'average' developer could sign up for and become a reseller?

• Comment 14 written by Raymond Camden on 7 August 2008, at 2:22 PM

  

  @PSenn - It's the free energy drinks.

• Comment 15 written by shakti on 7 August 2008, at 4:54 PM

  

  another vote for CFCs. mainly about best practices and how to not overuse them, i think i kinda do :)
  also something about hw far can u take the OOP approach using CFCs would be gr8....

• Comment 16 written by Jared Shields on 7 August 2008, at 6:40 PM

  

  How about... 'usable' or 'useful' uses of Event Gateways... (from a low or high level perspective)

• Comment 17 written by Alan Barlow on 7 August 2008, at 7:50 PM

  

  Information relating to scale, server configuration, security, maintenance in regards to delivering SaaS-based applications would be greatly appreciated.
  
  Also, if you want to broaden the brief more then perhaps cover the pro's/con's of individual codebase/database deployment per customer vs. shared codebase/individual database per customer vs. shared codebase/shared database per customer.
  
  Thanks!
