Thanks for the background info, very helpful. How has on-prem install gone for you guys ? There was an article on HN yesterday suggesting it was a royal PITA (for ops and support), would be interesting to hear about your experience.

Also FYI, your homepage has a 2015 copyright notice on it. No big deal, but thought you might like to know since it could put off particularly "nit picky" types of customer :)

If that's when the work was created, then that's correct. Copyright notices aren't there to tell you what year it is today. They are there to tell you when the work was created. If they change it to 2016 when the work was really created in 2015, then that's an invalid copyright notice and equivalent to no notice at all.

Heard this for the first time, so being really curious (I always have the most recent year in a range on my sites)

What if the page is dynamically created on the fly? What copyright should I have? If page contains snippets/work created in different years?

Exactly. I've actually had a manager tell me to update a copyright notice from 2016 to 2015. These are the real nitpickers.
