CFScaffold is a drop-in, zero configuration CRUD/scaffolding tool for CFML.  It reads the metadata in your ORM objects and uses this information to create list/create/read/update/delete capability for all of your objects.  CFScaffold is available as a free open source download.

Are you interested in learning more about Railo?  This summer I met with Gert and Micha, Railo's CEO and lead developer, to discuss how I could help get more Canadians interested in Railo.  Gert mentioned that they'd love to come to Canada to give some informational and/or training seminars after they're done the cf.Objective() conference next April.

Are you a developer, IT manager, or business owner who uses ColdFusion?  Are you a member of a user group that would like to host a presentation on Railo?  This is a great opportunity to learn about a great product, right from the source.  Presentations are free, so you're not committing to buy or pay anything.  Railo does offer paid training as well which is also always available.  A great time to arrange this would be when the team is "in the neighbourhood" anyway.

If any of this sounds interesting to you, please drop me a line.  I'm helping out by co-ordinating any events in Canada.  You can of course also contact Railo directly.  If you do this, please do me a favour and let them know you heard about this from Andrew Clarke.

Thanks for reading, and hopefully I'll see you in April!

Railo is an open source CFML engine.  It's mostly compatible with Adobe ColdFusion 9, and has a few tricks of its own that even Adobe ColdFusion can't match.  I've migrated a couple clients to Railo, and have been very impressed with its capabilities.  If you're interested in learning how your business might benefit from adopting Railo, please let me know.
