Benjamin, Not only do I think that what you are doing is indeed "shameless self promotion", but I think that you are seriously misunderstanding the concept of SaaS and promoting bad information about RoR and SaaS on the web.
Did you read through the points John asked about above? He is asking about: -Scalability -Multi-tenant database design -Configurability -Security These points are expressed in more detail in the article at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa479069.aspx but unfortunately there is little RoR specific information about them on the web. >From what you write on your website, the only thing you are providing is a billing system. Labeling that as "SaaS" is misleading in the extreme.
