Hey! I think this is a fantastic tool. There's only one thing:

CHARGE MORE!

This is easily worth $5 per month per user. It's Github, but lean and fast. There are very few people who would sign up at $1 per month who wouldn't sign up at $5 per month.

Also- if you're trying to make this into a business, self-hosting is something that you can get companies to pay for. Github Enterprise pricing is [obscene](https://enterprise.github.com/features#pricing) compared to the pricing for hosted, and companies pay it.

I think this is fantastic- great work.

As someone that has worked with github enterprise, I agree. Adding a self host option, and external authentication options (LDAP/AD) are needed in a self hosted product.

Thanks for your feedback. I'm glad you like it.

The pricing is not final, but I do want to keep it simple and affordable.

Let me know if you're interested in talking about pricing (probably once the work from launching settles down)- I'm working on a pricing analytics service and would love to get your thoughts/feedback.
