You can download it. Adobe has re-branded and re-released Communique since acquiring Day Software. CQ5 is now known as ADEP. Read about it in Adobe's ADEP Architecture Guide: http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/solutions/customer-experience-solutions/enterprise-platform/pdfs/adep-2011-architecture-considerations-for-new-and-existing-customers-ue.pdf. Here is an excerpt:

The Day CQ and CRX product lines have been incorporated into ADEP. CRX forms the foundation of the Experience Services stack, and CQ has been branded as the new Web Experience Management solution. Architecturally, these products are unchanged, enabling a smooth upgrade experience in the future. New customers requiring the web content management capabilities of CQ should purchase and develop their applications on one of the Web Experience Management solution editions (Basic, Standard, Premium). The Web Experience Management solution incorporates all the capabilities of CQ 5.4.

Download a trial version of ADEP here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/enterprise-platform/trial-downloads.html

According to my rep you need to engage with Adobe to get a copy. We don't have it in house yet as the do want a training session so that users aren't frustrated with the complexity. I've played around on a test site and also played with it at conventions and it seems like one of the better designed CMS options at the moment.

I am working on CQ5, its a very advanced CMS tool as compared to the others. But its not a open source like other Drupal, Joomla, etc. You have to purchase the developer suite.

Refer to the links for online document support.

CQ5 generally requires a license. However, you CAN get started with the various components. CQ5 is a system built on top of Felix (OSGi console), Jackrabbit(JCR), and a few other pieces, e.g. ExtJS for a lot of front end stuff. If you learn these technologies you won't 'know' CQ5 but you will have a big step up in terms of learning it.

The best thing to do is learn SLING.

If you really understand Sling and OSGI, the JCR stuff is pretty trivial. Mastery of these core technologies makes CQ/AEM pretty straightforward.

Adobe CQ5 is a tool being used for creating websites having content-oriented pages. This is a product of Adobe, so you cannot get it free. Instead, to get a glimpse of it, please refer developer website of Day OR adobe CQ. Also, we have some useful URLs, which can be referred: http://vimeo.com/39504016 (an introduction video) ; http://docs.adobe.com/ ; http://adobecq5interviewquestions.wordpress.com/introduction-to-cq/
