I know where you are coming from. I love orion. The problem I have is when I have to
rationalize its use to others. Here's the most basic recommendation that I think
would go a long way (believe it or not)
UPDATE THE WEB SITE ONCE A WEEK
include simple news...even just a paragraph or to. perhaps explaining latest updates
(in betas). If you have no news....add link to new clients/web sites...I'm sure
...this would take about 10 minutes a week and would go a long way in helping me
convince people to buy it...believe it or not. I know it has no relevance on the
quality of the product, but it would make a huge difference in giving the people I
work with confidence in Orion's future. This is necessary because orion is not open
source and we can not update the orionserver.com site as a community. I know this is
what orionsupport is for, however, when I have to get people to commit money to a
product simple things go a long way. I hope this was a more productive comment.
