Wow! This is really a great news.
This move will definitely bring more users in our community since many times
not-so-techie users prefer to go with commercially supported software.
I hope your Nginx venture will provide commercial support & services. You
can also partner with some hosting companies for extra revenue.
We started a dedicated portal ( http://wpnginx.com/ ) for wordpress-nginx
related consultancy & services and so far it received good response without
any marketing activity.
The point is - your venture is something people are awaiting out there!
Wish you & your team plenty of time... :-)
Regards,
-Rahul
