Congratulations to Clark and Hal, Brian, Andrew, Jeff, and Sean!
Here are the next round of topics announced for CFUnited 2009. Next month we will announce 5 more.
Clark Valberg and Hal Helms "Dancing with the Devil: Dealing With Difficult Customers"
Ah, customers: business would be great if we could just get rid of them! The humor in this statement is the absurdity of it, yet it's easy to understand the feelings that prompt it. In this session, Hal and Clark (who believe they've had MORE than their share of difficult customers) explain how the term "difficult customer" often is often misapplied; more often the problem is that a bad dynamic has been established between developer and client. Using real-life case studies, we'll share specific techniques we've found to be successful in both (a) avoiding problems in the first place and (b) turning "difficult customers" into enthusiastic fans.

Brian Rinaldi "A CF Developer's Guide to the Mate Flex Framework"
Learn how to use the Mate framework when building a Flex application that connects to ColdFusion. Mate was developed by Nahuel Foronda of ASFusion and is an easy-to-use and powerful framework for Flex development. It will feel comfortable to many ColdFusion developers who use common MVC frameworks. This session will show you the basics of using Mate in a Flex/AIR application.

Andrew Schwabe "Flex and Google App Engine"
This is a presentation on how to build a simple application with flex on top of google app engine (GAE) which uses python and python AMF.

Jeff Tapper "How not to code flex applications"
Having worked on hundreds of various flex applications, I've had a chance to see all sorts of bad practices in use. In this session, we will look at several mistakes: common ones, amusing ones, ones which got someone fired, and talk through ways of making you a better coder, or at least one who makes a better caliber of mistakes.

Sean Moore "Flex Best Practices"
This presentation is based on my experience developing internet based applications. I wrote two articles on Best Practices for the Adobe Flex Developer Center on the Adobe.com website last year. This presentation cover many of the topics and bullet points from my articles. The presentation is meant to help developers write more maintainable, scalable, clean, organized code and develop Flex projects in the same manner.
