Yes it is! But I want to redistro CF as part of a CFEverywhere package containing everything (J2ee server, web server, CF J2ee, db server, populated db, CF apps). All of this is pre-installed, so all the potential customer needs to do is download (and decompress), then double-click an icon on the desktop. This starts everything including launching a browser pointing to the (just installed) web site. The download/decompress/instaqll takes, typically, 2-3 minutes. the launch takes, say, 30 seconds-- and the customer is into the app (web site) Given the above scenario the deployment is done on the system where you create the package (my development system). Then we zip the whole package for download.
