I've run Octopus a little bit. It's got an interesting UI (Omero) and
some of the features are pretty cool--I ended up being able to cite
the Octopus paper in my master's thesis :) I had some trouble with
running it at first (O/mero wouldn't start properly, unfortunately I
can't recall the error, I think it's in the 9fans archive), but the
setup scripts make it pretty simple to configure.
