Hiya guys :),

My name is Patrick Tipping and I am a member of the Launchr community. When I say member, I actually mean trained monkey who tries to get into contact with people :).

I was recently in contact with one of your community members about Launchr, but, unfortunately, this broke down. So, I was wondering if maybe someone else inside the community would be interested in what we have to offer :).

Anyway, just to make sure, I would like to introduce you to Launchr with the hope of raising your interest in participating in our community program.

In short, Launchr was created to offer an easy way of testing, demonstrating and evaluating open source web applications.

This can be especially interesting for community projects like yours, since it offers existing and new users the opportunity to easily access an individual demo installation without any kind of technical know how, hosting, installation or setup required. Launchr can remove any kind of entry barrier for new users and we are hoping that this will aid you in growing your own community.

By setting up an individual installation in less than a minute, users will be able to try out new releases or use a sandbox installation to test new features, extensions or configurations without any hassle.

Since we firmly believe in the concept of open source software and feel strongly about encouraging such communities, we have created a community program allowing you to use Launchr for free and get you started with a initial setup of SilverStripe.

If you'd like to learn more about the community program and/or join or have any other questions regarding our services, please feel free to contact me via email or Skype (p.tipping).

Cheers and have a nice day,

Patrick Tipping
