Too bad it's AGPL. I understand the want to make money while open sourcing at the same time, but I fear this license will scare people. Are the majority of WebFWD sponsored open-source projects choosing this license?
I don't think there is another WebFWD III project licensed under the AGPL. We chose it to in order to allow people to use and customize our code but prevent competitive services built on it.

If you need a special license for your project contact us at founders(at)mist.io

for the record, codebender (WebFWD Class II) is FreeBSD
I would have bought it if you supported IBM SmartCloud
Stay tuned! We'll be adding support for more cloud providers along the way.
Looks very cool! Καλή συνέχεια! :)
can you check your email address verification regex? I can't use my+tag@example.tld
Good catch! We'll fix it on the next deployment in the next couple of days

Thanks for your feedback and your suggestion. It is within our priorities.

Also, check your email. We just sent you an invite!

This looks great, can't wait to try it out!

My only concern from the screencast is that it looks a little cumbersome entering deployment commands in that tiny input field. A good feature would be the ability to create a library of shell scripts and assign them to a machine for deployment!

Can you say something about pricing / how you are going to monetize?
Pricing policy will be published pretty soon. There will be 4 tiers depending on the number of managed and monitored servers: free, basic, startup & enterprise.

It will also be possible to get self-hosted installations with support.

put a cloud in your pocket and you'll get cold wet pants
Hehehe, haven't thought of it this way...
Any plans of adding Digital Ocean to the list? Looks like a cool service!
We're currently looking into extending support to more cloud providers, including DigitalOcean.
When you say API key and API secret for Rackspace... what does that mean? I only see one API secret key in my account.
Yes, this is somewhat misleading and will be fixed shortly. API key/API secret is the Amazon way. For Rackspace and Linode just put your username in the API key field and your API key in the API secret field :)
