Australia now has a Railo Community Manager

...and it is me.

I have been a long time of CFML and over the last four years an ever increasing fan of Railo. This blog went live on Railo 15 October 2007. Gert Franz spent a lot of time with emails and Skye calls helping me set up my web server and we have been chatting about CFML and Railo ever since.

So last Thursday I get another call from him to discuss Railo AU, which I keep bugging him, and recently Peter Bell, about all the time. But this time he asks me if I would like to join the Railo Team and  be the Community Manager for Australia (and APAC). I felt very honoured to be offered this voluntary role and immediately accepted.

So if there is anything you would like to know or need assistance with I can be contacted at andrew @ getrailo . org

ColdFusion Query of Query tips and tricks

Query of Query gives the developer that ability to manipulate a query result in memory. It is a real neat feature, but is very limited in what it can do and very quickly becomes extremely frustrating. It has a very limited range of SQL functions and syntax that almost makes it next to useless if you want to do anything serious with it. This blog post is a collection of things I have put to gather after many hours of scouring the 'net and even more trying to make it work. They include update and insert, sub-selects, and my latest - outer join.

This will be my second time as a conference speaker. The first time was at the inaugural cf.objective(anz).
