Just joining the farcry dev list... I've been a wallflower for a few days now and I'm loving what I see so far. After months of research and toying around, we have decided to go with FarCry for our CMS here at the Student Affairs dept. of UCSC. Other departments are experimenting with Nuke and Zope, but our dept has a substantial amount of work already invested in ColdFusion.
That said, we would totally appreciate seeing how daemon's base site works. We were very impressed with the base install of FarCry and the zillions of features, but of course there is a learning curve and we are not yet fully aware of what is possible. Unfortuantely the governator has taken our funds, so we cannot pay for documentation or support, but we will be happy to contribute our observations, modifications and such.
