ColdBox 2.6 RC2 Released!!
Im a little late on this and certainly not the first to post it but Luis has announced the release of ColdBox 2.6 RC2. I have been using the latest builds for all of my applications and I can tell you that they have been rock solid. I expect more of the same from the RC2 release. Head over to the ColdBox site and check it out. Still not using ColdBox? I would be curious to know why.
