<?p
Nearly all the source code to run the LiveJournal.com server is <a href="http://www.opensource.org/">Open Source</a> / <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html">Free Software</a> (depending which label you prefer), as are most the <a href="/download/">client apps</a>.

<?h1 Server Code h1?>
<?p
You can get the LiveJournal server code either from the <a href="http://www.livejournal.org/download/code/">latest snapshots</a> in *.tar.gz format, or <a href="http://cvs.livejournal.org/">from CVS</a>. The snapshots are taken pretty regularly, and CVS is almost always stable, so use whatever's easiest for you. Whatever you do, though, <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/doc/server/">read the documentation</a>. You can consult current issues and pending feature requests in <a href="http://zilla.livejournal.org/">our bug database</a>.
