Asheville PaaS - Free trial Rails/Ruby/python/node.js/etc hosting

[pmeserve]

Hi all,

I was at a meeting a few months back so I've met a few of you before.
I just wanted to announce, the multi-language PaaS offering our little
local Asheville company has been working on is just about ready to go,
and we're starting to hand out some free "alpha"-quality trial
accounts to developers to do some last tire-kicking and give us
comments before we start a beta.

We're designed to be Heroku-compatible, but we're running on dedicated
servers so if you've got custom needs (e.g. access to a distributed
filesystem), let us know and we may be able to offer some unique
features.

We've got a little bit more information online:
http://www.pogoapp.com/

And some basic docs here (you'll need an account to use the API
features):
http://www.pogoapp.com/docs/getting-started

If you want a trial account or just have questions/etc, just shoot an
email to sup...@pogoapp.com (you can also sign up for the mailing
list from the webpage, but if you email us letting us know you're
around Asheville, we'll put you at the front of the line)

We're also just opening up #pogoapp on irc.freenode.net, and may be
around on there if you'd like to chat on IRC

Cheers

- Paul Meserve
