Never write form confirmations ("Thanks for your email") in red color. Looks like a warning. If a form is processed correctly, it should be black or green.

I hope that usability of djangy service will be better. Can't wait to try it :)

Btw, isn't Heroku itself planning anything for Django?

> Btw, isn't Heroku itself planning anything for Django?

Has that ever been mentioned or rumored before? Is that even feasible given Heroku's technology stack?

Pure speculation, but they've taken funding and seem eager to branch out. I think we'll see more than ruby hosting from them in the near future.

I was throwing around startup ideas and I emailed them in late june 2010 to ask if they were considering it.

The response was quite clear that they had no plans to enter the Django market.

That's what I'd expect. They're only still in the early market penetration stage of the Ruby market; it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to complicate their product offering. (Particularly when App Engine is available for Python/Java.)
