Hi,

In light of this thread:

<http://groups.google.com/group/github/browse_thread/thread/
a434ef8706d98c03/60f18755c64aae3c?hl=en>

(which I can't bump because Google has closed it), and this Twitter
from PJ:

I'm curious what small teams (like my company, which is a start up of
exactly 3 people, much like GitHub) are supposed to do when they have
legal or security reasons for not wanting to use a public repository?
We have both licensing and security requirements as to why we can't
use GitHub. The security reasons aren't "my boss won't let me use
GitHub" reasons, but real reasons of intellectual property and wanting
to have vetted employees who can see the code (given our business
model relies on control of our source code, much like GitHub's, in
fact).

That said, the quote above, and lack of response from GitHub to our
inquiry about pricing lead me to suspect this might not be suitable
for our needs: but really we'd like to make up our own mind as a
business about whether the price is prohibitive or not. I've been
giving GitHub money via my personal account for almost a year now, and
am happy to continue doing so. I'd really like to use it for work,
too. But the prevailing attitude seems to be that it's unsuitable for
our needs.

So if it's not small teams, what kind of teams is this product aimed
at?

Brad
