No worries and I am good friends with the Heroku guys and I fully give them props for lots of the pioneering ideas in this space. This project means to take it further though and be one everyone's cloud operating system, the Linux of cloud

I agree and I'm working with marketing folks to make this stuff more clear. There are just so many details to get a release like this out the door that some things didn't get as much attention as they deserved. But your point is well taken

It currently supports multi-tenant and single tenant, you choose when you set it up. Currently the multi-tenancy is based on locked down unix users and permissions and other system hardening, pretty much same approach Heroku uses so you jud

I'm not saying not to get a degree and I do sometimes wish that I had gone for a CS degree. But that being said I have learned all I needed to know in order to grow a 100 people strong cutting edge company and all I have is my GED. And even
