I watched last night and am really stoked about 3.1! Here are some details from the video, but please still watch it.
The final should be out March 31. A community edition will remain free and rival CF8 code. An enterprise edition will be added for $3,000 and will include reactor.
Both version will allow for admin extensions such as extended searching, video tools, ect. The community edition will have to pay for most of these extensions although some will be free. The enterprise edition will be free.
Another neat feature coming is the ability to grab cfm/cfc files from almost anywhere including FTP and run them on your own server as if they were physically on there.

@Mark,
not quite: The enterprise edition will contain Fusion Reactor and Fusion Debug and it is not free (as you write 2 lines below :-).

The resources (grabbing files from everywhere) is there for over 1 year now. It was introduced in Railo 2.0 already.

I couldn't join you guys yesterday, but I watched the recording.

Just one side question... why are you guys launching on March 31/April 1st though… would people take it seriously? ;-)

I watched the recording, too.
Gert, it was great. I always learn more about Railo.
I also learned some tricks.
I'm looking forward to a great new Version.

I was a big fan of Railo anyway, but after the presentation I am most definitely sold on it being better than ColdFusion. I was going to deploy 3.0 on our hosting servers but I think I will wait for 3.1 now.

I was trying to find info on your site re installing/running multiple instances of railo for application isolation, but the only link I found was broken, could you tell me where to find this info.
