Then they should have announced it when it was ready.

There is now openshift.com (enterprise), openshift.org (OSS), and openshift.io (???) and none of these websites do a great job of explaining why you should be on that website and not the others.

You want everything explained, you want to use it for free and you don't want to participate. Everything that's wrong with the world ;-)

Don't be silly.

If you want customers, you have to actually convince them to try your product.

The expectation of a customer that they might want to understand what the heck they're signing up for... before they sign up for it is hardly controversial.

I think this thread makes it abundantly clear that a days work creating some screen casts instead of fluffing out some marketing fairyfloss would have significantly improved the reception of this product.

It's just plain marketing fail.
