I know its been a few weeks since I closed down the signup forms for Shockey Monkey but the avalanche of signups was so big (along with the other internal OWN issues I mentioned) and it has taken me a while to process everyones signup – I am about a day away from being done though!
I estimate that all the people that received the “You’re in email” will be in OWN Support Portal by the end of business tomorrow, and I hope that everyone is up and running and online by the end of the week. Please remember that once you get the welcome email from the support portal you need to update the contact and company information (this is required in order to generate a valid SSL certificate request) and then follow the instructions to order Shockey Monkey (which is free, for now and for a while); After the SSL certificate is generated you take it to GoDaddy or your choice of SSL signing places and obtain the cheapest possible SSL certificate signed for Apache. Copy and paste the certificate (or attach) to the order ticket and I’ll get you up and running by the end of this week. Promise.
Considering that there is no way to get Shockey Monkey anymore, this is the end of the line where I’m going to be the sole marketer / developer / activator and manager of the project so things will start moving quite a bit faster from now on.
For what its worth, thank you for your patience and I look forward to spending most of my time on development again…
