What Hacker News says

I think the major issue with Tent was that their development efforts had always been divided between two Tent servers. Tentd, the reference implementation used by self-hosters, and their proprietary multi-tenant server that powers https://micro.cupcake.io. But in a blog post in November 2013 (https://cupcake.io/blog/2013/new-tent-server), they announced that they will stop the development of Tentd and open source their multi-tenant server. The development of https://flynn.io (another Cupcake project) will simplify the deployment of the multi-tenant server. The first preview release of Flynn was announced two weeks ago (https://cupcake.io/blog/2014/flynn-preview-release). There hasn't been much updates on Tent since the last office hours in January (https://tent.io/officehours/2014-01-28), but Daniel said a few hours ago that they will ann

ounce May office hours in the next few days (https://micro.cupcake.io/posts/https%3A%2F%2Fdaniel.cupcake....). I'm really excited for the new features in Tent 0.4 (https://github.com/tent/tent.io/issues?labels=v0.4&page=1&so...) and I can't wait to self-host Tent on the new multi-tenant server!
In App.net State of the Union
The only project actively using it at the moment is https://cupcake.io (for example, my profile is https://frabrunelle.cupcake.is). This is because Tent app developers are waiting for Tent 0.4, which contains several new features (https://github.com/tent/tent.io/issues?direction=desc&labels...). It should come out in a few months. The team behind Tent is currently focusing on https://flynn.io, which they are about to launch. Flynn is important for Tent because it facilitates the deployment of Tent servers.
