I'd like to point out that on the DRK 3, MM has released a Verity app for
Linux based on Lucene.

I've ordered it and am waiting to try it out.

  The install process on Linux is very painless especially on RedHat since
the cfinstaller will automatically build your Apache connector for you.  I'm
not sure if the cfinstaller will do that on the other distros.

  I've been running CF on Linux for 3 years and the platform is rock solid
and noticeably faster than on the Windows systems I've used.  I just
upgraded to CFMX 6.1 (making a big jump from 4.5) and things seem to
generally be running rather well.  However the lack of Verity support is a
major disappointment and has actually spurred me begin to looking at
migrating to Tomcat or JBoss instead of CF.  The nice thing about open
source app servers is that the generally work on any Linux distro.
