Team ColdBox is working on putting together a list of features for our 4.0 release. Before we finalize anything, we'd like to hear from you. Please give us your wishlist for the ColdBox Platform and what you'd like to see us work on. There's always items like documentation and additional screen casts, etc but let's focus specifically on what development items we can do to make ColdBox faster, easier, smarter, and flexible for YOU. No suggestion is too big or small. ColdBox Platform

Core MVC
WireBox
LogBox
CacheBox
MockBox

I started a thread on the official ColdBox mailing list>, but I also want to open up comments for people not in the Google Group. Please leave a comment with your thoughts and suggestions.

ColdFusion's getMetaData function is a very handy way to introspect the functions, properties, and annotations of a component in an easy-to-digest format of arrays and structs. ColdFusion even nests structs to represent the metadata of the classes your component extends as well. Recently, for an enhancement I was building for WireBox, the DI /AOP framework inside ColdBox, I wanted to be able to condense all the metadata down for the component in question as well as all the components it inherits from to a single list of functions, properties, and annotations. After a short bit of Googling, I didn't find any code that did that so I decided it was a perfect opportunity to write a function that did just that. [More]
