The notion that this move would buy them any credibility with developers is completely laughable.<p>Why should I trust a company with my hosting who, last time I used them, waited less than a day after expiration to sell my almost completely unknown, personal domain to a squatter?
I used nodejitsu (paid account) for 24 hours. They screwed up their DNS and was sending my client's domain to a random person's node app (and vice versa).<p>That's when I stopped trusting other people to handle my critical infrastructure.
