Please join me in welcoming Don Humphreys to the Wheels core team. Don has certainly grabbed our attention over the past few months with development of the CFRel and ColdRoute plugins, which bring some significant Rails 3 features to Wheels.
Congratulations Don! We’re looking forward to your contributions to the project.
You can follow Don on GitHub as dhumphreys and Twitter as @dhumphreys88.
We’ve released ColdFusion on Wheels version 1.1.5. This release addresses some regression issues with 1.1.4 that some of you reported involving plugins deployed in a subfolder install of Wheels. Thanks to your help, Tony Petruzzi was able to fix this issue quickly.
Wheels 1.1.5 also fixes an issue where values generated by the select() form helper were not being HTML-escaped. This fixes a potential security hole, so we recommend updating as soon as possible.
To upgrade, simply download the zip file and replace the wheels folder in your application with the new wheels folder from the download.
Thanks to those of you who helped report, pinpoint, and troubleshoot these issues. Your help has made the Wheels framework a better tool for everyone.

To upgrade, you just need to replace the wheels folder in your application with the new wheels folder in the zip file. Read the rest of this entry »
Tony just built a release candidate with changes slated for ColdFusion on Wheels 1.1.4, and we’ve made it available for download.
This release includes some stability and bug fixes. But most notably, version 1.1.4 now allows you to develop plugins without needing to have a dummy zip file packaged. Just create the plugin directory and start coding your plugin.
Help us test this out in your environment so we can be sure that 1.1.4 is ready to go!
I will be speaking at cf.Objective() 2011 in a little less than an hour. If you’re around, come by to get a free Wheels t-shirt!
Awesome scotch glass logo design by the team at Hipervinculo.
P.S. To keep things consistent with the CFUnited post from earlier this year, I’m attaching another blurry photo. All photos of t-shirts must look like Big Foot sightings.
