Hi @dan and team. I can’t wait to receive my Glowforge and am also a big fan of cloud computing (as I work for a major provider).
Does the Revolv shutdown increase the likelihood that Glowforge will eventually produce virtual machine or container images that would enable users to run their a private “Glowforge cloud”? The topic has been raised in the Glowforge Community (Open API?) and on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/gadgets/comments/4dfzwv/google_nest_is_permanently_disabling_the_revolv/)
As an example, the team over at Particle.io has published an open-source, API-compatible version of their server (https://github.com/spark/spark-server) and instructions for setting up a self-managed cloud on EC2 or GCE (https://community.particle.io/t/tutorial-local-cloud-1st-time-instructions-01-oct-15/5589).
I can’t wait to get started!
