#62Just a question: If you haven't launched, how can you claim to a "most popular plan"? Seems dishonest...
I wouldn't worry about that. "Most popular plan" is marketing-speak for "we think that's the plan most people want". Even if you have 0 users, I wouldn't be shocked.
Do not try to be 100% technically accurate. That leads to long, unreadable text. It's ok to rely on your reader's imagination to convey a message.

Er...are all your internal documents and planning, price plans etc meant to be public? http://rm.bettermeans.com/attachments/51/Pricing_page.pdf via http://rm.bettermeans.com/projects/48 Credit if you really plan to run things that openly otherwise you really should be taking things down ASAFP.
Yep, it's all open.
Not just for people to see, but for people to join us and make it better.

PLEASE don't use security as a price discriminator. The web is already too full of shitty security. "Enhanced" security should be baked in to the app for EVERYONE.

Wow. I'm not sure whether that's brilliant or insane but I wish you the best and will watch with interest.

This governance model explains who an open enterprise works. http://bettermeans.org/front/?page_id=312 Would love your feedback
The first thing that jumped out to me is "why should I care?". What's wrong with the "command and control" model? I don't know what the problem is which this tool is trying to solve.
I think he answered that question here:

If anti-authoritarianism isn't in your blood I'd say you aren't the target market.

Agreed. Just changed that. Thanks for the feedback.

This is cool! I've was looking for something like this earlier in the week. Obviously this isn't the place for filing bugs, but after signing up, http://rm.bettermeans.com/my/account is a broken link for me? Which kind of makes it hard to try my hand at a demo project.
Thanks. Just fixed it.
Nice! Other comments:
-As someone else posted on the site, attempts to create a new workstream meet with a 403/not authorized despite being logged in.
-It may just be a placeholder, but the "Browse all enterprises" and "Browse all workstreams" seems to be an unwieldly way to discover new enterprises/workstreams, since after the launch is well underway, that list will explode in volume. The search box is nice to find enterprises you already know about, but really what's needed to make it easier to find new enterprises (IMO) is some way to hierarchically categorize or tag your organization. And also those "Browse all..." type pages should definitely be paginated; they're way too long already.
