Bah 😛

HostingCon has been and gone now - did anyone go and speak to the NocWorx guys and see what it was all about?

Paul, Chris, Tim. Anything? 😃

Sorry to say this! (and the following may be incorrect)

I _think_ Paul is the only guy who remains (and _probably_ the owner of iworx/nexcess now?). Chris should have handed over the company to paul and left without saying a bye bye to us. IWorx-Tim would have left the moment another Tim came on the forums, but that Tim too gone now I guess.

If things go like this, all iworx loving customers would have to move to cpanel (or other bad ones), though I guess one user called “Justec” would continue to be with iworx until it’s last moment. 🙂

Come on Paul, take action immediately.

It’s hardly as dramatic as all that Tiger :). The last few months have been transitional as we moved our main development office and hired some new folks, one of which is IWorx-Tim-Pgh in the forums. The other new guys (Mark and Chad) haven’t had a need for forum accounts yet, but I’m sure they’ll show up as the need arises We wouldn’t do anything to force anyone to cpanel, we aren’t that mean ;). IWorx-Chris is still very much around, if not on the forums lately. In fact, he’s been very busy with NocWorx development as of late.

Don’t push me out Tiger!! I’d say bye bye if I was gone but I’m still in the loop!

Regarding NOCWorx - it’s coming along well. I’ll explain it briefly here but we’re a good 4 months away from an “official” release so features to change etc.

NOCWorx is a colo, dedicated server and VPS billing and infrastructure management system. It bills and manages clients, talks to your hardware infrastructure (switches, power-switches, servers) to do things like meter overage and trigger events as well as higher level functions like full OS installs at the push of a button. NOCWorx’s goal is total automation of the above and we’ve got a lot done and working in both live and test environments. Our site will be online in the next month or so and we’re shooting for a Christmas-ish release.

If you have specific questions you can e-mail me at clwells |=at=| [nocworx.com](http://nocworx.com).

Yes I would 🙂

This is the only control panel that is designed / programmed the way I would have done it myself. If I didn’t already have my web dev business I would probably be harassing them everyday for a job 🙂

I don’t have any questions.

And, sorry for the thing I posted.

It seemed (to me) that some users were losing trust on you. (remember some guy (r-n-r?) queried about decrease of posts on the forums recently and I also realized that) And also, things like many threads not being answered. You could have explained about the situation earlier (like you did just now).

And, Chris made a post after a long long gap! 🙂

Hope all goes well to you guys.

I think I’ve been using Nocworx as part of my dedicated server package. Is it true that Nocworx is already in use by some hosts perhaps as a beta?

If so, then as far as I can tell it’s a nice, simple and clean system to manage one’s hosting account and basic server details, such as remote-rebooting.

The design has gotten an overhaul since I last used it, which is just one of the improvements I’ve seen improvement over the past 9 months, so keep up the nice work!

And yes, the link at the bottom does go to [www.nocworx.com](http://www.nocworx.com) so I guess that confirms it.
