I have been involved in setting up a new forum called the UK ColdFusion Business Group with Claude Englebert of Adobe. The group is business focused and not concerned with technical aspects of the platform - the idea is to promote the benefits of ColdFusion in an Agile environment and indeed in generating an agile environment. We're inviting attendees to the inaugural meeting with the following message:

UK ColdFusion Business Group

• ColdFusion is Agile – its the most Productive way to build web software
• ColdFusion is Easy to use – it requires 60% less time to Proficiency than Java
• ColdFusion is Tidy – it requires 88% less code than the same function in Java
• TCO for ColdFusion is 58% less than the same application in Java

If your business relies on continual maintenance or development of web based software and you are looking for a new cost effective way to keep up with the pace of change, then we invite you to join our group free of charge.

ColdFusion is the fastest way to build Java based web applications.
