Can anyone from the Flynn project comment on this versus Deis? I've tried Dokku and thought that was pretty slick, but ultimately decided to move on to a Deis/Chef devops setup, because dokku was too lightweight for my needs and Flynn wasn't ready.

Flynn definitely isn't "ready" yet. This is a preview release, production grade stability is still a few months away.

I haven't looked closely at Deis in several months, but Flynn doesn't use Chef (or anything similar) anywhere and don't plan to.

Deis dev here. We've removed the Chef dependency as of v0.7.0 in favour of CoreOS and fleet for container/machine job scheduling. That ship set sail only recently in master. :)

Good riddance. Oh, and Chef is still in your website's meta tags (and therefore google results).

We'll be updating the website in preparation for our next release. Most users are still on v0.7.0 or earlier. Once it's been released then our website should reflect the changes in master.

oh good... time to have another look at Deis then :)
