"Updating/Hotfixing ColdFusion: Tips and Traps" with Charlie Arehart

After a several month hiatus (just so hard to get speakers), I'm going to rekindle things by presenting a talk myself (my first here since May 2011!)

Our 12pm (US ET) talk on Thursday May 28 will be "Updating/Hotfixing ColdFusion: Tips and Traps" with Charlie Arehart

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

In this session, veteran CF Troubleshooter Charlie Arehart will share some tips, tricks, and traps with respect to applying updates to ColdFusion 11 and 10 as well as some on applying hotfixes in CF 9 and 8. There's a lot more to it than meets the eye, even with the new single-button update feature in CF10/11.

LOGGING IN: When you login to the Connect room ( http://experts.adobeconnect.com/cfmeetup ) to view the meeting, PLEASE USE THE "LOGIN AS GUEST" option, and USE YOUR NAME, but do NOT attempt to use your meetup.com username/password or any Connect account. Just sign in as a guest.

No need to RSVP if you're NOT coming: We do appreciate folks RSVPing if they plan to come (using the link on this email or at the meetup site), though it's not mandatory and it's not a commitment. But there's no need to RSVP if you can't make it let alone explain why you can't. With nearly 2,800 members, no worries. :-)

FEEDBACK/MEETING DISCUSSION: Members will receive an email after the meeting or can click a link on the event page to offer. Note also the meeting-specific discussion area there at the bottom, in addition to the one-chance feedback feature on the right. Feel free to engage in discussions about the meeting topic.

ADD THIS TO YOUR CALENDAR: Want to add this event to your own personal calendar? After logging in here, you'll see an option at the top of the event detail page, just below the event title, saying, "Export", which offers calendar downloads for Outlook, iCal, Google, and Yahoo calendars. (Note that the calendar entry created will show the event taking 2 hours. That's a default that meetup.com has chosen, which I can't change. The meetings are generally about an hour, though often go as much as 30-45 minutes longer with Q&A and chat.)
