Server Code
The LiveJournal server code was initally released in a set of .tar archives, which you can find in our LiveJournal code repository. The most recent version of LiveJournal is located in CVS at http://cvs.livejournal.org/. To ensure that you have the best working version, we recommend installing straight from CVS. When installing, be sure to look over INSTALL.txt, located in CVS.

There are other sites that use LiveJournal as the framework application behind them, and here is a short (and rather incomplete) list:

• http://www.deadjournal.com
• http://www.parajournal.com

These things have all been developed for LiveJournal but aren't LiveJournal-specific.
