So, I wrote Dokku, helped design Docker, was co-architect of Flynn, and am now in R&D partnership with Deis. I also made Localtunnel, RequestBin, Hacker Dojo, etc etc if anybody is keeping track. I guess I'm not who this question was intended for, but I figured I'd share some context.

I can't speak as much to Flynn right now, but here is a fairly recent blog post about the current status of Dokku: http://progrium.com/blog/2014/10/28/deis-breathes-new-life-i...

tl;dr, after a long lull between 2013 and 2014, its activity has picked up and is slowly working towards a 1.0 including a major refactoring to address a lot of issues and bring it up to modern standards. In fact, here is our refactoring doc in progress: https://github.com/progrium/dokku/wiki/Refactoring

I feel the flaws of these projects quite deeply, especially Dokku. But I'm surprised to still run into so many people (just not as many here) that really love Dokku. Without them I would not be motivated to come back to it and make it what it should be.

Keep in mind Dokku was the first killer app for Docker and a lot of my design influence on Docker was to be able to easily make something like Dokku and eventually systems like Flynn, Deis, etc. But also so many other things...
