Hi

I had a few test apps running on heroku a while back and had forgotten
about them until I got an email informing me that they had been moved
to herokugarden - fine with me I don't mind

Then today, I set up a new app on heroku (not herokugarden) and was
wondering if this app will get moved by some daemon to herokugarden at
any point

It's not going to be a problem, I was just wondering

Also, I notice that if you create a custom domain name for an app on
Herokugarden, the page will have a pervasive heroku banner link at the
bottom whilst custom domain names hosted on Heroku do not.

Whilst I understand why you do that (you are giving free hosting and
nothing's really free right?) what can we do in the event that it
clashes with the site colour scheme?  Lets say I had a bright pink
background or flourescent green etc...
As a suggestion I recommend the following:


1) allow users to alter the colours of the Heroku banner bar at the
bottom of the page (perhaps have a set of banners from which they can
choose, even allow people to develop their own within strict
guidelines using some custom banner generator tool) - this solves the
problem of my page background clashing with your banner

2) or, make a requirement that every page of every site must contain a
visisble link to herokugarden along with some buttkissing statement
about how much they love heroku, instead of having to have the
banner.....  a bot or perhaps a rails test could verify that the
visible link is displayed and could be set up to lock the site down if
the user removed it

just thinking


so my questions are:
1) will my app on heroku be moved to herokugarden suddenly one day?
2) in the event that my app on heroku is not going to be moved to
herokugarden, how long do I have before it ceases to be hosted for
free?

finally, I have a podcast that I want to host, I was thinking about
using dreamhost as I've got other apps running there but now that I've
spent the last 12 hours immersing myself in the ways heroku, dreamhost
seems like a total PITA.  the best solution is probably going to be
the heroku commercial option you guys have planned, can you give me
any info about what to expect for pricing?  also do you have any idea
what will happen in the event that my users should exceed my download
limit?  will I get fined or will my app just stop running until the
next month?

ok, thanks for the lovely app, heroku really is excellent
