We often get asked about the product and company name "RhodeCode". The "Code"-part is clear, right? , but what about the "Rhode"? Do we have our office in Rhode Island? Or are we somehow affiliated to the Greek sea nymph Rhode?

We released a new getting started video. It is taken on the latest version of Hosted RhodeCode which has the latest user interface changes.
We are happy to announce a new plan which uses solid-state drives as storage device. The SSD is set up as RAID 1 for high-availability. Thanks to the SSD, the performance of RhodeCode dramatically increases by the factor 8 to 10 because most operations within RhodeCode require direct access to Git or Mercurial metadata stored on the hard drive.
This week we focused on finishing the first iteration of the website which went silently online today. We already have more content for the site prepared, especially more feature pages, but we are a little bit behind at the graphics for them and will upload them at the beginning of next week.
Marcin and I strongly believe in transparency and openness. At RhodeCode we even put them into the DNA of the product (open source software) and the company (core principles). Our communication is also guided by being as informative, open and transparent as possible and so we thought about what could follow these principles but could still be so interesting that we by ourselves would read it.
