We're actually looking at doing a CF deployment JumpBox though. What's neat is these things are production ready. So for instance our public website itself is running on a Drupal JumpBox, we use a vTiger CRM JumpBox internally to track contacts with vendors/partners/customers/etc. And the code for the platform is developed on a Trac/SVN JumpBox. They're good as throwaway testing tools but are pefectly acceptable in a production enviornment as well. Sean Jim- http://www.JumpBox.com

I haven't checked out JumpBox yet - do you have a URL? I spoke with Adam Lehman when he and Tim stopped by our CF user group and mentioned to him the idea of using the Developer Edition of CF in a VM and he thought it would be OK since you would still be restricted in it's usage... I just haven't had time to play with it yet... Yes – Railo would be ideal. I haven’t checked out JumpBox yet – do you have a URL?

I know the guys from NA and haven't spoken with them about it yet- it would require a special licensing deal as I believe it's against their TOS to redistribute BD without permission. Either way, there are alternatives to Adobe for making this happen. You'll find that there's a difference between making a true virtual appliance vs. cloning a VM image of a setup instance. We have a year of dev with 5 guys making the JumpBox platform and just released our 1.0 line of appliances this week after an extensive beta prog. Our platform handles network and app config on first usage as well as things like automatically dumping the state of the appliance periodically to a network share and support for VMware, Xen and Parallels. Pending the amount of interest from the community, we'll look at doing a CF appliance. sean We talked with Gert from Railo about the notion of creating a CF deployment JumpBox based on their CF engine.

What is CentOS based off? RHEL? I've actually just been lazy lately and was going to play with this more after I upgraded to Ubunut 7.04 (which I can hopefully do when I get home) I was going to dig around and find a stripped down distribution and see if I couldn't come up with something.

They said they would pass it on, but weren't as charged up about it as I was. It would be great if they put together a developer image, for existing developers and for developers who want to try CF out. I suggested this to some Adobe staff in the past.
