After many months of hard work, we have released the 2009 edition of FusionDox. Lots of fun things in this edition, including PDF previews of documents, a document conversion API so you can write your own code to convert documents, split/merge PDFs and more. New Flex/AIR based FusionDox client (aka the FusionDox Authoring System) for live editing MS Office/OpenOffice documents directly through your browser, and it works for Macintosh and Linux computers too! There is some preliminary info online, with more to come. http://www.fusiondox.com/

CF United Speaker Interview

Tue, 12 May 2009 16:26:00 -0400

1. Have you spoken at CFUnited in the past? What would you tell someone who hasn't been to CFUnited before? Yup. I've been speaking at CF United events for the last 4-5 years or so. Lost count. CFUN is cool because you get to hang out with all the movers and shakers in the industry. 2. Why should people attend your session(s)? Why not? I'll be showing an example of using Flex to talk to Google App Engine (GAE), so its just pretty darn cool. 3. Do you have any projects in the works that you will be revealing at CFUnited? I'm hoping to have a brand new product ready to demo called FusionDox Access, which is a way cool easy way to share large files with people, and easily integrates into your web projects. All build in Flex of course :) 4. Besides your topic, what other sessions are you looking forward to? Flexy goodness, especially looking forward to Flex 4 graphics enhancements. 5. What are some of the hot topics you'd like to see at RoundTable discussions? How to beat down the industry's impression that ColdFusion is dying. 6. Where can people find you at CFUnited? (At the bar, networking, working, in your room, etc.) Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes. Also email me. aschwabe(at)gmail(dot)com. 7. What's the latest news with you? Has anything changed since last CFUnited? New version of FusionDox is coming out. See http://www.fusiondox.com/blog/ 8. What is unique about CFUnited? Everything is approachable at CFUN. Talk to whoever, everybody is sincere about wanting to transfer knowledge so that everybody grows. 9. When you are not working what do you like to do in your free time? Playing guitar, riding my motorcycle (bmw k100), going to the shooting range with the family, travel, eat, drink, being merry. 10. Feel free to make up your own question and then answer it. Q: Why? A: Because.

TaskCFC : Open Source Group Task Management is coming!

Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:23:00 -0400

I have been working hard on a new project, to be released as open source called "TaskCFC." This is a group task management system that uses ColdFusion on the back end and Flex on the front end. I am writing this since it seems there are no real easy to use/easy to customize group task mgt systems out there. Ultimately this *WILL* be integrated with FusionDox, and may be integrated with Google apps and Google App Engine. [More]

FusionDox coming to .Net

Thu, 16 Nov 2006 02:00:00 -0400

I have been working on a port of our FusionDox development platform to run on BlueDragon.Net. It seems as though it is a smart next step to move there before making a full blown re-write in ASP.Net.

I will be posting some info on this as the process goes. I have been impressed with what I have seen of BlueDragon.Net in terms of scalability and such. Lets see how it handles a very large application like FusionDox.
