How many people are actually working on Orion, and what is their forte? Most likely,
it is probably developed and maintain by a small number (maybe under six). Sure, they

rock group. Add a good manager (CEO with a good business plan) and a promoter (a
great technical writer working the documentation), and suddenly you have U2.

I also would like to here from someone at Ironflare/Orion concerning the
status of the company. My company is currently planning to build our
internal infrastructure on the Orion server.
