ColdBox Beta 2: Flex/AIR Integration comments

When I first read Luis's entry on ColdBox Beta 2: Flex/AIR Integration this is pretty much that immediately went through my head ...

Gotta be honest: at first I didn't buy into it... You have to be careful on separating your logical layers... if ColdBox is a front-controller, why would a Rich Front End talk to it? It should talk to your Service Layer... and your Service Layer doesn't need ColdBox ...

However, after talking to Luis I discovered, what if, what if you make ColdBox become your enhanced service layer manager? What if your ColdBox Handlers become part of your Service Layer API? What do we have? We have a Service Layer with built-in environmental settings, logging, error handling, event interception and chaining, you name it ... Now it all makes sense...

This is good; real good ... perhaps you'll see a full 60 or 90 minutes presentation on this at CFUnited or CF.Objective() 2008.

Keep it up.

Luis was invited to speak at cf.Objective() over a month ago and he said yes. He'll get a formal invite to submit both an Intro to... and Advanced ColdBox session proposal real soon now.

Sean, I was referring to my session, but it's good to know we're finally gonna get some decent ColdBox sessions at the conference.

Rob, I do not have you listed for any specific session, only that you want to speak. You should get a formal invite to submit a topic in the next couple of days and the team will then decide whether to accept it.
