I just got out of a session with Jason Delmore talking about some of the new features being looked at in ColdFusion 9. He mostly talked about the ORM features being baked into the next version of ColdFusion courtesy of Hibernate. We also squeezed a few other tidbits of information out of him too.

I've fought my way to a seat somewhere in the back half of the main auditorium for Tuesday's Main Session. Today is supposed to be the big day for product announcements like ColdFusion. I assume Ray Camden will be blogging this too, so I'm going to take a slightly different approach and let him do the play by play while I record the best quotes I hear from Adobe's finest. I will update the post as I get good stuff to record and assuming my internet connection says up...

Well I didn't get to write this until this morning, but I wanted to reflect briefly on the first day of Max. This being not only my first Max but my first conference in general. I've got to say that overall I have been pretty impresed.

I sitting here in the main session for Adobe Max 2008 and I can't believe how many people are here already. They just started us off with a beat box slide show... I ran into Jochem while cramming down breakfast and chatted with him up the escalater... he said that people claiming *some* usage or interaction with CF accounted for about 50% of the registrations-- and the CEO just annouced there is over 5000 registrations. I will update this post as stuff happens...

After a couple very long airport delays I have arrived in San Francisco and can't wait for the first workshops tomorrow. I have a laptop in tow and hope to blog what I can providing there is wireless available.
