Using FarCry
FarCry is licensed under the Common Public License 1.0. You can create derivative works and share or not share as you like. Unlike other open source licenses, this is something that's commercially friendly.
We're always doing our best to get folks involved in the FarCry community, and to that end we've invested heavily in making FarCry available on all sorts of systems:
FarCry runs on Adobe ColdFusion, New Atlanta Bluedragon, and Railo, incorporating a range of ColdFusion application servers, from commercial options, to those that are free for community use.
FarCry supports Linux, Solaris, Windows, and OSX (basically anything you can get a ColdFusion server running on).
FarCry works with mySQL, Postgres, Oracle and MS SQL database servers.
The community itself is a vibrant and friendly place. We provide as many services as we can to help people learn, participate, and see what's going on in the code base day to day:
forums
bug tracking
fisheye for code tracking
crucible for peer code review (running under fisheye)
documentation wiki
We've recently released Daemon's entire FarCry Developer Course (130+ pages) under Creative Commons. We hope this will go a long way to helping developers become familiar with the platform quickly.
And of course, Daemon provides a range of commercial support, development, and training services for companies investing in FarCry as a platform for their online business.
