Nice! A few questions:

1. Is the source code hosted somewhere or publicly available?
2. Is the source code licensed under GPLv2+, GPLv3? If not, then what is
the license?
3. Do we have an idea of the kind of resources (CPU, Memory) and the number
of users it can serve?
4. Are there any limitations that would prevent the software to run on ARM
architectures?
5. Are there any limitations that would prevent the software to run on
different OS platforms (Fedora, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu)?
