We’re happy to announce a significant maintenance release of Wheels: version 0.9. We’re also running out of decimal points on the way to 1.0. I don’t think we’ll do anything cheap like version 0.10. 🙂 Consider this the final beta cycle.
I asked Per how many bugs were fixed in this release, and he answered, “Tons.”

Mike Henke and Clarke Bishop have been writing some great how-to series on using ColdFusion on Wheels. Both do a nice job of showing the steps involved with building simple sample applications.

The Wheels community has been finding some bugs here and there, which has resulted in an improved product for everyone.
That said, ColdFusion on Wheels 0.8.2 is available today. This includes many critical bug fixes. We recommend upgrading to this version as soon as you can.
Keep the feedback coming, everyone!
You probably didn’t see this one coming, at least not so soon… Wheels 0.8.3.
I’m most excited to announce that this release introduces support for Railo Express 3.0. As soon as the open sourced Railo 3.1 is released, we’ll have an opportunity to offer a full-stack open source CFML environment similar to Ruby on Rails. Many thanks to Wheels’s Peter Amiri and the Railo team for their efforts in getting this working.

Update: I wrote this blog post because I was fired up. Of course, I realize that you’re looking at the blog about Rails for ColdFusion. I was merely trying to get you to see the significance of what we’re doing here. Apologies if anyone thought that I was slamming the project. It really is a great thing!
I’ve been addicted to TED Talks for the past couple years. Recently, I caught up with a talk by author Howard Rheingold, called Way-new collaboration. (For those of you in RSS Land, click through to see the video.)

Right now is a pretty good time to be learning ColdFusion on Wheels. You can review the documentation that’s been written and learn as we write new chapters. So far, I’m guessing that it would be pretty easy to keep up with us!
If you haven’t been keeping up with the conversation in the discussion group, we’ve been producing some great new material. Up in the Docs are 2 new videos and 2 new written chapters.

Along with the 0.8 release of Wheels came a whole slew of new chapters in our Documentation. If you were looking into learning a little bit more about the framework over the weekend, the Docs are a great place to start.

ColdFusion on Wheels is back with its triumphant 0.7 release. We’re glad to have Wheels’s ORM features back, along with a complete rewrite of the code base for improved performance. We’re hoping to write about great uses of the ORM features in particular in the coming weeks.

We just put up a bug fix release that fixes a few critical errors with the 0.8 version:

Thanks to everyone who reported errors and helped us test the solutions!
