That type of thing would be great. It would also open a lot of doors for working examples of the different frameworks.
Having complete builds that have fully installed Farcry, Transfer, Reactor, Coldspring, Fusebox etc.. with examples. I know that what really sparked my interest in frameworks and CFML in general when I first started were the working examples provided by the community. A fully functional app running from a folder is very motivational. I am very impressed with openBd and how simple it is to get running. Props to the entire development team.
