No you are absolutely right. We've been in the middle of a solution for some time now -- we just keep getting distracted. I know that's not much of an excuse so apologies. Hopefully we'll be in a much better position to distribute appropriate "complete distros" and easily accessible milestone upgrades soon. The end game will be a web service that allows you to auto update your builds and plugins through the webtop itself -- with 5.x+ you can run independent FarCry versions for each site in shared hosts. > Is there no public official place to download the v4 packages?

We've worked out a nice hosting solution through Amazon S3 and we're currently automating the nightly build of various code bases (eventually all). Currently all code bases are available through subversion as well. > I guess I should try to dig up the public SVN details (I had them once, ages > ago) but as I just wanted to look at this one particular rule I thought that > downloading a zip would be far quicker. Obviously not. If you are after a specific piece of code, your best bet is actually Fisheye: http://fisheye.farcrycms.org/ For example you could search for ruleHandPicked and get any version of the component here: http://fisheye.farcrycms.org/browse/plugins/farcrycms/trunk/packages/rules/ruleHandpicked.cfc > I would log a bug about the case sensitivity, but as I'm seeing it on shared > hosting I don't have access to the core so I can't say for sure what's > actually happening, and the person who could look is currently away.

Well one very clever aspect of FarCry is the ability to override behaviour -- you could for example create a ruleHandPicked.cfc of your own in the project and override the standard publishing rule from the plugin. With a correctly configured shared host, running *only* version 5.x on their servers, it should be possible for every site to have its own farcry core library running under the webroot. That way you could update your core code base whenever.
