Has anyone here built anything on top of Could Foundry yet?

As the article says the cloud foundry project already has a life of its own outside of VMWare with both ActiveState's Stackato and AppFog already offering products and services built on Cloud Foundry with a growing community of contributors to the project, the best is yet to come!

  I find it kind of scary that when I go to the AppFog page and click on support I see only one item on the site. ( http://appfog.zendesk.com/home http://appfog.zendesk.com/home ) Surely there must be more documentation that can go up there?

    We are aware of the problem, and we are working to address this. Thanks for the feedback!

We're dogfooding at AppFog. We self-host our web management console (see http://blog.appfog.com/creating-your-first-app-in-appfog-in-under-5-minutes/ http://blog.appfog.com/creating-your-first-app-in-appfog-in-...). When we needed a staging environment, it was just an `af push` away.

  what's the relationship between appfog and cloud foundry? is appfog source available? i just watched the video and it said "open source", but that seems to refer to cf, not af? what does "registering" for appfog mean? is that pre-registering? or does it exist? can i try it out? what do you pay for? please forgive the questions, but i'm looking at all this for the first time and a bit confused...

    CloudFoundry manages the application lifecycle of AppFog apps (deployment, binding to services, etc.) What you see in the open source CloudFoundry project is what we run on our servers, with minor changes in our private repo that are specific to our product (e.g. billing). We are now in our private beta program. Signing up at http://appfog.com/ http://appfog.com/ places your email in our beta list, which we create accounts for regularly and often. We will announce paid subscription plans very soon, so stay tuned for the details.
