Tech Omaha

Join us Tuesday evening May 26th 2009 at the Nebraska ColdFusion User Group. Pizza arrives around 6:00, the meeting starts shortly after. We will be discussing the two popular open source ColdFusion engines, Railo and Open BlueDragon.

Ryan Stille will walk through setting up Apache Tomcat and deploying Railo, OpenBD, and Adobe CF8 on it. You can easily run all of these engines at the same time and even run the same code base through all three.

First up, we have:

Perl lightning talks!

The Fall 2008 UNO CSCI 2850 (Programming on the Internet) class invites you to an evening of lightning talks on Perl programming, the Firefox web browser and other (mostly) web-related topics.

Lightning Talks are no longer than 5 minutes and can be about anything: a new idea, an evaluation, an observation, a story, a complaint, an explanation, a suggestion, a report of success or failure, a call to action, a description of a technique, technology, or a lament.

Usually we split the talks over two nights, but this semester it’s going to be one, big solid night of talks.

Where: Peter Kiewit Institute, Room 252 ( http://tinyurl.com/5g83cb ) When: Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 Time: 6:00 PM until 8:30 PM

You can see a list of all the talks here.

Security Testing In Your Applications – Daniel Carnes

As developers, we are all concerned with security in our applications. More often than not it is tacked on to the product lifecycle like some sort of Frankenstein. Daniel thinks this is simply unacceptable and it should be one of the first things to be setup in building your application. Let’s face it. Security is easy to get wrong. Daniel is going to show us how to setup our environments early and to make sure our applications stay safe. This will be one not to be missed!
