For the last couple of months I've been learning/developing on WPMU.
It's been pretty painful.  This post does a decent job describing that
pain:

I'm looking to build a site that, at it's core, is a cross between
WPMU and Ning: a multi-site install of WPMU + Buddypress.  More
specifically, any user should be able to register for their own site
(e.g. user1.domain.com) and on this site they can create as many blogs
as they wish (e.g. user1.domain.com/blog1).  I believe Habari supports
this type of multi-site install.

In it's full maturity, the site will have (in order of priority)

* premium services with pay-pal integration
* facebook/twitter activity feed integration
* iphone/mobile phone support (both publishing and viewing)
* social networking features
* ad-revenue sharing

It's possible to put together a prototype of the above in WPMU and I'm
getting close to shelling out $$$ to have someone develop it, but
longer term Wordpress just doesn't seem the way to go.

Is Habari the right platform for me to build on? Can you point me to
any "large" and/or heavily customized sites running Habari or _any_
sites running Habari for that matter?  Anything else I should know
before taking the dive?

Thanks in advance for reading and replying and great work so far to
all the contributors, it looks like a great product!
