I would say that there would definitely be interest for something like that.
My thoughts are that CF won't be "more" popular than it currently is until
there's a larger base of "free scripts" out there for people to use.

Subject: Any Interest in a Completely Free CFML Calendar?


For some time now, Vivio Technologies has been debating whether or not
to put forth the effort to complete the development of a completely
free, (under a modified open-source MIT license) CFML calendar
application. The idea was to develop a calendar application that anyone
could do anything they want with, and help support the Cold Fusion
community as a whole. Companies who develop in CFML would have the
ability to -re-design, re-code, -re-brand, re-sell, or whatever else
they wanted to do with the calendar application. The calendar would be
able to run under BlueDragon FREE edition, and use open-source databases
like PostgreSQL and MySQL. That way, no user anywhere would need to pay
for anything more then the cost of hosting in order to deploy the calendar.

Our question is simple: Would there be any interest in something like this?

If there is significant interest, Vivio Technologies will make the
investment to complete the project and deliver the calendar. If there is
only a small amount of interest, then we'll quit wasting our time
debating over this project and move on to projects which are of more
value to us and/or the community.

Please take a moment to visit our current calendar site located at the
following URL:

http://calendar.viviotech.net/

Please understand that the calendar project isn't *quite* finished, but
if there is interest we'll be more then happy to put the finishing
touches (the spit and polish - if you will) on the calendar and make it
available, completely free of charge, to the community.

We welcome any comments you may have - good or bad. Thank you for
helping us in this decision.
