The title says it all. You can now grab the 2.0 version of Model-Glue from the new shiny website at:

I'm going to do a few MG 2 blog posts once I return from CFUNITED.

Along with MG 2 for ColdFusion, Joe has released a version of Model-Glue for Flex. I've yet to have a chance to play with this, but I'm pretty darn excited. I'm still a newbie at Flex and I could really use some guidance!

This is excellent news! I've really gotten into Model-Glue in the past month or so and the community of people making blog posts, tutorials and hanging on the message boards are really helping me out! Keep up the good work!
So it looks like MG 1.1 will no longer be supported?
By support do you mean bug fixes?
Yes, and just the fact that I can't find any download links for 1.1 on the new site. It's not a big deal, really, since I pretty much decided I'll be looking into MG2 anyway (it's just that having to learn Coldspring and Reactor and be a bit intimidating for a framework newb like me and version 1.1 seemed more "manageable").
The link to MG 1 will be restored. I spoke to Joe about it. As for when - I'm guessing post CFUNITED.
Tony, to be clear, you do not have to learn ColdSpring or Reactor or Transfer. It may help, but you have no real need to.
After playing with MG2 for a bit, I'm realizing that you're right -- it's not really necessary to learn the other frameworks. But then again, the more I'm seeing what Coldspring can do, the more I WANT to learn about it :-)
Cool. And I want to be sure I was clear on this - you SHOULD take time to learn ColdSpring, Transfer, and Reactor. But you don't need to, and if you are just learning MG, I'd keep things simple at first. It's all about the baby steps.
Ray, is there a security issue in having modelglue.xml viewable in the browser?. For e.g, I can view the modelglue.xml for your cfcookbook site.
Yep, it should be blocked. I just never got around to it. :)k
Any idea how?.
Actually, I think you can use this, from index.cfm in the default app:

   <cfset ModelGlue_CORE_CONFIG_PATH = expandPath("/modelglue/unity/config/Configuration.xml") />


Try changing it to another file. Of course, that just obscures it. It would be easier to use your web server and just block the entire config folder.
I just took the read permission from config folder and that took care of it. Thx.
Hi Ray,

I have been toying with MG:U and like what I see. However, in my workplace we support applications of different branches that rely upon each other. So we would like to call classes of related apps to reduce redundency. Does MG support calling components of other MG apps?
