Wheels 1.0: We're Production Ready

We've gone 1.0! Go <a href="https://cfwheels.org/download">download ColdFusion on Wheels 1.0</a> and give it a try. If you're upgrading from a previous version, please review the <a href="https://cfwheels.org/docs/chapter/upgrading-wheels">instructions for Upgrading to 1.0</a> (even if you're upgrading from the release candidate).<!--more--> It's an honor for me to announce this release and to thank our passionate community. The core team and community have put a ton of hard work into this project since I started contributing in November of 2007. Per Djurner has truly done some hero work. Everyone owes him a beer. Even though <a href="http://corfield.org/blog/index.cfm/do/blog.entry/entry/On_Hal_Helms_Ruby_on_Rails_and_the_Death_of_ColdFusion_and_Fusebox">Sean Corfield claims that Wheels doesn't have much traction</a>, we have been overwhelmed by <a href="http://twitter.com/synxer/status/5956374387">the</a> <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/cfwheels/browse_thread/thread/f3f9a91ed0415897">positive</a> <a href="http://twitter.com/rhwalt/statuses/5990048515">feedback</a> of the framework. I expect more to come. It's been picking up. I'm going to risk forgetting to thank someone who has helped. I'm sorry if I missed you. Thanks so much to Rob Cameron (The Godfather), Per Djurner, Tony Petruzzi, Peter Amiri, Raul Riera, James Gibson, Mike Henke, Clarke Bishop, Russ Johnson, Grant Copley, Isaac Dealey, Tom Hoen, Andy Bellenie, Milo Maneo, Louis Plante, Joshua Clingenpeel, William Fisk, and Mike Haggerty for contributing to the project in meaningful ways. (Hey, I've always wanted to release a <abbr title="Compact Disc">CD</abbr> with a "Thank You" section, so this will have to do. :)) Here's to a framework with a very bright future and a major contribution to the <abbr title="ColdFusion Markup Language">CFML</abbr> community at large.
