Day (http://www.day.com)

Sling started as an internal project at Day Software, and has been contributed to the Apache Incubator in September 2007. It can be considered an important part of Day's software stack, and was open-sourced to make the technical innovations contained therein available to the public.

Sling powers Day's entire CQ5 family of content management products (Web Content Management, Social Collaboration, Digital Asset Management), and is included in Day's CRX content repository, which is itself based on Jackrabbit.
