I would bet that EDU version means any EDU instituion. My friend Stephen teaches grade school and got a free license for Flex because of his status.
Problem is that it's not going to be released for around a year (my guess). You could go with something like Apache and ColdFusion. They work quite well together. Or even easier you could go with ColdFusion's built in web server. It's not full featured, but it'll do what you need. andy -----Original Message----- From: Pete Ruckelshaus [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 18, 2008 2:49 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Details on CF9's "free for academic" licensing? I teach High School computer science at a public high school in Southeastern Pennsylvania. I was able to get a section of Web Programming added as a new class in addition to the Web Design and Computer Science (mainly Java with some SQL). Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see if the change was "official" until I got my class schedule late last week; first day of classes is next Monday. Anyway, I was planning on teaching ColdFusion fro my web programming class; it's a logical choice (to me) and a great way to acquaint students with programming fundamentals...and also create as many CF converts as possible :P I talked district IT into giving me my own server for my web design and web programming classes, and now I need a (free) CF engine; desktop security policy would make it difficult to run IIS and CF Dev Edition on the student desktops. Does anyone know what the policy will be for the "free for academic" licensing for CF9? Is it limited to colleges and universities, or can primary and secondary schools use that licensing scheme as well? How will one apply for such a license? And, finally, does Adobe have any such program for CF8? I'll install BlueDragon if I have to, but would prefer to run with CF8 until CF9 becomes available. If someone from Adobe wants to contact me directly, feel free to do so. I also realize that some of this info might be covered by NDA, and I don't want to get anyone in trouble.
