It's pretty simple. You have to buy a license for any installation of coldfusion that goes on a shared server for any purpose, including development, staging, testing, etc.
The only "free" version is the Developer's Edition, which you can install on your desktop and make available to some limited number of IP addresses (like 3-5). Using a proxy server or any other methods to "technically" bypass the IP address restriction on the developer edition would be a violation of the license. "public facing" has nothing to do with whether or not you have to pay for it. But I'm no lawyer. Chances are, if you're installing coldfusion on anything other than your own desktop, you need to buy a license. Rick -- I'm not certified, but I have been told that I'm certifiable...
