Does your team do a lot of Flex and/or AIR development with ColdFusion as its backend? Please contact me. I want to discuss what you are up to.
Thanks! :)

We are using AIR and Flex to deal with our social networking sites (15 domains with more than million users).
AIR:
* Desktop application for a social site with AIR
- Users can login on their desktop application like Skype or ICQ and communicate with portal users.
- Services such as who is online, message services runs also on AIR part.
Flex:
- Reporting for site stats, affiliate statuses, user tracking etc.
- Managing site & application settings.
- Users site customizations such as personal settings and look and feelings.
- Admin interface for lots of modules such as e-mail and profile manager etc.
- GUI for moderators to manage the profiles and user photos.
All backend based on CFML engines. (Main application is based on ColdFusion 8 and image and video processing are based on Railo on Amazon EC3 & S3 servers)
Here we have developed an ERP system for a manufacturing company using AIR and CF8. All the frontend is AIR connecting to CF8 using RemoteObjects. We use MySQL as the DB backend.
The system is used daily by 75 concurrent users, 60 in Canada and 15 in China (near Shanghai).
We have implemented an update manager to ease the deployment of updates to our application.
I think that we have something interesting to showcase when talking about AIR/CF in the enterprise.
All of this is running on Macs....
Feel free to contact me if you want more info !
