Just got back from London for the first teach date of my Core ActionScript 3.0 course at Skills Matter and in a matter of days I’ll be heading out to Edinburgh along with Nico Lierman for Scotch on the Rocks.

This is going to be an interesting conference for sure, for one thing I haven’t touched ColdFusion in quite a few years and creating a CFC is about the extent of my hands on experience with the technology. The up side is that pretty much every session is going to be an eye opener for me.

Don’t worry, I won’t be talking about ColdFusion but rather doing my “RIA meets Desktop” talk covering a whole bunch of AIR API’s as well as one on “Object-Oriented ActionScript 3.0″.

Have been looking over the schedule and these are some of the sessions I’m hoping to catch:

Neil Web – Cairngorm for Beginners
Sean Corfield – Getting Dynamic With ColdFusion
Neil Middleton – jQuery in a Nutshell
Andrew Shorten – Flex 3 Designer/Developer workflow
Sean Corfield – Event-Driven Programming in ColdFusion
Luca Mezzalira – Manage Flash Lite Data with Flex and Air
Børre Wessel – Flex Client Architecture & Best Practices

 
Now, I’d better get ColdFusion installed on my laptop so I can start experimenting with the stuff I’ll be learning.
