Hey everyone,
I've been working for a little while on a proof of concept for a new VPS control panel. It's been working quite well, so I'm considering continuing development on it and making it a real product.
Obviously part of my consideration is what the community thinks, so I wanted to ask everyone: what do you think? Do you see a need for a new VPS manager? If so, what do you think it would need to have? What does SolusVM and HyperVM do wrong?
I'm especially interested in hearing the opinions of providers. What frustrations do you have with the software you currently use? What would make you switch? I'd like to know that there's interest on your end before I continue with this.
I've taken some inspiration from joepie91's CVM, but really my program is completely different. It's written in Python, and uses libvirt, which allows it to support many platforms (right now, I'm targeting OpenVZ, Xen, and KVM).
If there's interest, I can share some more technical details and thoughts. I'd love to talk, so feel free to send me a message. If any providers are interested in speaking, let me know. Early adopters would have the potential to be a big influence in its direction.
