This week's Tech Wednesday breezo was presented by Macromedia's Senior Software Engineer Peldi Guilizzoni.

Programming Flash Communication Server applications is not an easy task, but after you have built a few, or a few dozens ;), some patterns start to emerge. Learn these patterns and get a peek at the best practices that Peldi uses to build Breeze Live using Flash Communication Server.

What You Will Learn

• Writing code for re-use
• Leveraging the power of AS2 in your Flash Communication Server applications
• Writing the perfect OnSync
• Effectively using NetConnection.calls and SharedObjects together

After not one but two of the UKCFUG sponsors have not managed to pay their bill for the last two quarters the user group have found themselves in a rather desperate position of looking for new sponsors in really short order. The main thing that we need is cash, cash to pay for the meeting venue.

If you would like to sponsor the UK ColdFusion user group, please get in touch with the board.

Here is the recording of today's Community Tech Wednesday!

Our very own Scottish JRun User Group Manager, Duncan Jack will be presenting his AMP Framework for Flash Applications and Rich Internet Applications. The AMP Framework provides a modular approach to building applications and enables content management to be distributed amongst team members, or delegated to clients. In addition, it helps to eliminate the blank screen inherent in HTML based applications, facilitate single sign-on between multiple applications and maintain search engine compatibility. A fully-functioning copy of the AMP Framework will be made available to all meeting participants via a download link at the end of the presentation. You can see the AMP Framework in action at http://www.lochlomondquiltshow.com.

We had a couple of audio drop offs today so the recording is not the best... please keep that in mind when reviewing the presentation. http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p16349708/

Whilst I prefer my Scotch neat or with a little drop of water, I do like the name of the new Scottish CFUG conference!

Along with Andi Hindle, I will be making the short hop to Scotland to present at this event (it is a strange coincidence that both Andi and I love scotch)

The price is very cheep at only 25 quid so well worth the trip and make it even more inviting, they are promising goodie bags for all and a pub tour on not one night but two!
