ColdFusion 9.0.1 is now available for download at http://www.adobe.com/go/getcf901.

Some of the good changes mainly in the use of ORM:

• Language enhancements - including for-in loops for arrays.
• CFScript support for dbinfo, imap, pop, ldap, and feed
• CFScript support for file uploads.
• Caching enhancements - including the ability to get a handle on the ehCache session.
• Support for IIS 7
• ColdFusion Ajax enhancements - including updates cfmap, cfgrid, file uploading and JavaScript functions.
• ORM enhancements:
• Support for Multiple Datasources
• Transaction Management Improvements
• skipCFCWithError Flag in ormSettings
• mappedSuperClass Attribute for Components
• Use EntityNew to Populate a New Entity
• Support for HQL in cfquery
• Amazon S3 support - the ability to use Amazon S3 storage with most tags and functions that use a file or directory as input or output.
• On the Flash/AIR/DS site - there were updates to the CF/AIR integration bits, Flash Remoting, and support was added for BlazeDS 4 and LCDS 3. (Blaze and LCDS are one of the things I think far too many CFers don't know enough about.) ,
• CFaaS was updated to allow you to get text and images from PDFs.
