Russ,

FarCry CMS is a full enterprise content management system. It is not
actually a framework at all and would bear no resemblance to Model-Glue,
FuseBox or Mach II. FarCry does include a means of extending the base CMS
functionality and this requires the use of built in extensions. You can also
extend FarCry with custom code I believe, and you could use whatever
framework for that, but this would exist outside the core of FarCry if I am
correct. In the end, FarCry is very extensible, but there is a bit of a
learning curve, and modifying the core code would require quite a bit of
experience in my opinion (and cuts you out of any upgrades in the future -
at least without a major headache)

Galleon and BlogCFC do not use a prebuilt framework, and would exist outside
whatever framework you choose unless you decided to rewrite them to fit
within one of the frameworks.

Personally, I have been using Model-Glue 1.1. It looks intimidating before
you use it, but once you do for actually start, you quickly realize it is
very straightforward. My suggestion is not to download all the frameworks
and try it unless you have gobs of free time. Read about them, perhaps
browse through the tutorials (documentation is the key in the end) and then
choose one and have at it. This doesn't mean you are married to it forever,
and truly, part of the point is that if you build it correctly with one
framework, swapping in another is pretty easy (at least this is the case
with the big 3 frameworks).
