What’s ahead for ColdFusion
The upcoming CFMX 7 updater, codenamed “Merrimack”, is in beta and will be released later this year. The updater will provide, in addition to bug fixes, improved platform support and will surface the “CFCProxy” machinery to allow Java code to call ColdFusion Components. The platforms include: Mac OS X native installer, RHAS 3.0 / 4.0, SuSE ES 8 / 9, WSND, OAS 10g.
The next release of ColdFusion (CFMX8?) is codenamed Scorpio! It is still in its very early days. Two of the areas that the Macromedia developers are looking at, based on requests from customers, are:
- Enhancing the presentation features and functionality
- Monitoring and access to the server internals (via)
