Well – it’s 6:00pm but unfortunately I can’t get on the CFMeetup Connect site. Charlie mentioned he had a busy schedule today so I imagine he’s running late or possibly had some technical difficulties… I’m going to stick around for 30 minutes or so because I don’t have anything else to do :)
Update: Ray showed up and the meeting was a success. Well, it was for me… Hopefully everyone else enjoyed it. That was my first “online” presentation so I hope I did OK :)
Update #2 Sorry for the delay! Lost was on last night :) Files are located on the Ant page of my wiki Thanks again to Ray Camden who got the meeting starting, Charlie Arehart who runs the CFMeetup and everyone else who came out to attend!!
Doing the online meeting was a bit odd. It was weird not having an audience there. When speaking in front of an audience it’s easy to tell if they are ‘getting it’ or if you need to slow down and go over more detail. Online there is no feedback other than the chat window. But overall it was fun and maybe I can come up with something else to present in the future!
I DID forget to mention yWorks Ant Explorer – check out this older post. It’s a helpful tool that gives you some visuals of your buildfiles.
Great presentation!
For some reason I couldn’t see the discussion area so I couldn’t see the questions that were being asked or ask my own but I still really enjoyed the presentation.
I am looking forward to playing with ANT!
Jim,
You did a great job of providing an introduction to ANT. Ant has long been on my list of things to check out and see how I can leverage it to be more productive. You have served to motivate me to start actually playing with it. Good Job!

Bummer, I tried to join at what I thought was the correct time (after time zone conversion) and I got a message saying the session had been closed. Perhaps it hadn’t started yet? I’ll have to watch the recording I guess :)
Justin,
I would encourage you to do just that it can be found at http://recordings.coldfusionmeetup.com
It is time well spent if you’re looking for an introduction to ANT.
