Good point! We'll add that to the site. Thank you!

Thanks!
Yes smart contracts are on our roadmap.
Marketing wise, we have several distribution channels that help us out at the moment. If you have ideas we'd be happy to hear them.

The ongoing deposits are the main issue which we automate for the client. Imagine doing what you describe for 50 repo's.
That would make you unhappy quickly. Also the lawyer would not do this for free.
I guess it's a matter of finding the right balance between cost and convenience.
ddewit | 8 years ago | on: Show HN: Codekeeper – Source Code Escrow for Developers
You are right it's exactly the combination of ongoing snapshots and the need to only provide access when there's a verified release event. We try to provide that balance.
We also do verification, but that's mainly when there is 'less than optimal' trust between the developer and the licensee.

You describe exactly one of the scenarios why Codekeeper was made; the situation where a CD in a vault is enough, doesn't work anymore for many web apps under continuous development.
Source code escrow has to be an ongoing process too, which is also why it's differently priced than it was before.

We created Codekeeper so you can now easily comply with escrow requirements from your enterprise and government clients, and more importantly, to help you close deals with those clients quicker.
Being developers ourselves it’s designed to keep your life easy and works in pair with Github, Bitbucket and the other SCM platforms.
We’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions to make it fit even better inside your development or software business.
Cheers!
ddewit | 13 years ago | on: diary.io - should we build this?
I can't figure out what it's for. So I guess no, or perhaps improve the message.

Nicely done Nathan! Please keep us informed about the commercial side of this, like you did with the earlier book. It's very interesting to follow.

For teams where you have non-coding interaction designers and backend designers AND separate marketing teams this could be an awesome accelerator simply because everyone uses the same tool (Bootstrap) but interacts with it in different ways. That's awesome.

The dutch government auth service (Digi-D) runs on it. So that's like 17MM people who have ID's there and login to do their taxes etc.

It's amazing that Apple thinks they can get away with this. What they offer is far from special. I'm glad I'm part of Exvo where we'll launch our Books app soon and do away with these crappy business proposition.

Isn't it cool how technology breathes live into existing ideas and makes then reality? I wouldn't wanna be in any other line of work.
