There is too much news in the world but too little is really new

Tue, 31 Mar 2009 19:16:00 +0200

As of today Railo, your CFML engine of choice, is open source under the license LGPL V2. It is of course a BETA release still, but you have access to the source code. We are still working on several things and day by day there will be new pages added to the website. Below you will find a list of what has been done and what is due before the Final Release.
Done things:

Open Sourcing Railo
The source code is available. Along with the source code, we will release some guidelines on how to build Railo in a Eclipse environment. This is not done yet.
Separate Railo into core and extensions
Now Railo is very easy to extend. We have some Railo core extensions that allow you to upgrade your engine. In addition some applications have been converted into extensions as well.
Extract the complete serial number management
The Railo Open Source version will be the only version of Railo available. This is the core engine. You can of course buy some additions to it but basically there is no other version. Therefore the Railo Server Administrators will be not restricted at all.
New websites
This was very important for us. So we created three different new websites for your services. Since we are an open source company now we have to rely on the services we provide. Therefore we introduced the new website www.getrailo.com.
In order to interact tightly with the community and to offer a platform for exchanging experiences between developers we created a community driven website which is reachable at www.getrailo.org.
The third one, important of course as well is the documentation website. It's running on Transfer/ColdBox and Codex WIKI. It will contain most of the documentation and guides as well as user generated content.

There will be many things happening in the next 4 months so please stay tuned and help us create the best and fastest OS version available. Things that will follow this week:

Blog entry about BlazeDS
New features
Updating documentation
Installer guidelines

Professional Open Source
Community driven
Railo Documentation
