Vyatta Gets $11 Million Investment - What Do YOU Get?
The
press
release says "The
funds will be used for operating capital as the company scales its
market penetration and product delivery.". .... Just to ease
your minds, we are not acting like fat cats now that we have a little
more cash in the bank. I will admit the pizza last week did have a
few extra toppings and we did replace the squeaky paper shredder that
was driving me crazy, but that's about it for us, the rest of the money
is earmarked for evolving our product and business to better serve our
customers. Don't believe me? See what our CTO and
engineering team have been up to...

the future.
As if Robert hasn't been busy enough helping users on the mailing lists,
whipping the engineering team and building package repositories, he also
took the time to add a
wiki page describing
our development process, code release cycles, and how
the community can access all of it.
.......and if you want to

New Customer Case Studies & Press Releases |

"Ask a reasonable
person whether a specialized router crafted by a leading vendor with a
no doubt substantial budget possibly could be outperformed by "free"
software "thrown together" by a loose band of programmers. Should be no
contest. Of course it was no contest - but not the way you would have
thought going in."
