7 points and no comments yet, would it be that lots of people want to use scalr, but no one has yet?

yup, im in that boat.

There will be a pay version of Scalr released soon for a very small monthly fee for those who don't want to install and configure it themselves.

The problem with Scalr is you need to run several EC2 instances...if you can afford that (and need that) you're probably cool paying $500 for RightScale's fee service.

720 dollars a month for 10 instances running consistently for a month on scalr. Why pay monthly for the setup.

Looked at it again today and not seeing much activity, even on the Intertubes.

RightScale has been getting plenty of activity, though -- so it's a bit surprising.

link? it is not scala i presume since noone corrected the spelling. aha: http://code.google.com/p/scalr/

i am that, want to and plan too, but not yet
