It's amazing what gets done on your holidays...

sydjs.com now runs on Heroku's Cedar stack. And I've added collaborator
privileges for everyone who had them on the old site.

This means y'all can get back to all those great features you were working
on, right? ;)

Unfortunately Cedar doesn't support clean hostnames so we have to run at
www.sydjs.com from now but sydjs.com redirects so at least everything will
flow through.

If anyone else wants to have a crack at adding some things, or even just
take the monthly update load off Gil (whose hard work is why the site has
been up-to-date for the last six months) all you have to do is email me your
GitHub username and the email address you use for Heroku. (both are free to
sign up for, if you don't already have accounts.)

Carl, I remember you volunteered to crank out some db action, so I've
already added you ;)

Just remember to dev only in NodeJS v0.4.7 (which is what Cedar supports)
and check out Heroku's docs on running Node on their platform:
http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/node-js

Enjoy!

In my experience this untrue, unless it's a limitation that only exists 
for node apps.

The custom domain add on should let you add sydjs.com and www.sydjs.com

In your actual experience on Cedar, Ben?

Cause their support told us it couldn't work.

I didn't try it, though.

Well yes. I have multiple sites on clean hostnames with cedar. But on 
Rails, not Node. Which is why I'm unsure.

Okay, I'll check it out, thanks!

Thanks Lachlan, you're now free of my pestering to get the site migrated :)

And by "hard work" you mean "spending 15 minutes updating a file once a month"...

Hey,

 I've just been running through the code this morning. Very excited. So 
I'll get started on it. 

Cheers,
Carl.
