The sessions are based around an application called EVA that the EMEA team are developing so you can get a real feel for how the Flash Platform designer to developer workflow can be leveraged to make creating rich engaging content easier.

It you’re too excited to read the whole article you can jump straight to the overview of the improvements and feature updates here:

• What’s new in Flash Builder 4
• What’s new in Flex 4
• An introduction to Spark

I have a load of articles that I’ve been holding on from posting while these products were in private beta, but now they have been released I can finally get around to publishing them :D

Recently I was invited to speak at Scotch on the Road London, and as the only self professed non ColdFusion developer there I decided it was high time I got ColdFusion installed and running under MAMP Pro. So after much Googling and reading I came to the conclusion that there just wasn’t a clear set of instructions on how to get ColdFusion to play nice with MAMP Pro. Luckily I’m not easily put off and after a few hours of swearing at my Mac and many install / uninstall cycles I eventually got it working. So for those who also use MAMP Pro and would like to integrate ColdFusion with it I have put a screen cast together that goes through the entire process of integrating the two together.

Please excuse the audio – I’ll redo it at a later date but I wanted to get it posted sooner rather than later.

If you are following along the code I paste in to the MAMP Pro configuration template is below so just copy and paste it in to your config file.

<IfModule mod_jrun20.c>

UPDATE
Since producing this video Living-e no longer maintain MAMP and MAMP Pro, it has been taken over by a company called AppSolute so where I mention locating the living-e directory in your Library > Application Support directory, you will now need to refer to the Library > Application Support > appsolute directory instead.

UPDATE 2
For those of you who are working with ColdFusion 9 check out Adam Tuttle’s post / video on how to get CF9 to work after following my video
