Hi all, DotCloud co-founder here. Happy to answer questions as usual. 2 important notes: 1) all private beta users are getting a VIP paid account *for free*. Details soon. 2) Hackers and startups will also get free stuff. *lots* of it. If you like DotCloud but think you can't afford it - get in touch. We'd rather build high-quality stuff, priced fairly, and give some of it away, than race to the bottom along with everybody else.

Thanks Shykes! I've been building my app on your service and have become hooked. I showed your tour video to my office today and they were all very intrigued. Congratulations on the launch.

Three quick things: Password reset form? Created an account but it won't let me log in. Maybe a messed up the password cut and paste from my password database. Second, no ssl for the login form? Is this coming soon? Third, I occasionally would get redirected to a subdomain http://c959ac0b.dotcloud.com http://c959ac0b.dotcloud.com which doesn't seem to have the same session cookie as the www domain.

  Same here. Accepted a beta invite a while back. Now I can't login.

$102.40 per GB-month of RAM is crazy. Compare to $21 per GB-month for on-demand or $14 per GB-month for reserved (annual) on EC2.

  This is in the Pricing FAQ, for those who are confused where this came from, like I was.

This is super minor and stupid, but Chrome has a super stupid crossed-out https protocol warning thing and it looks like it's due to your having pulled down the un-SSL'ed jquery from google. It's an easy fix to pull down the SSL'ed version instead [1] [1] it affects caching and stuff, iirc, but I also think that cache hits are pretty low as it stands (citation missing, but needed, obviously)

How open are you guys to adding a framework/service not listed there? I'm thinking of Mono specifically.
