Kia ora All,

I thought I would take the time to let you know that we have put our  
first Radiant managed site live.

[http://www.sonarhq.com/](http://www.sonarhq.com/)

It was a great learning experience and Radiant has been great,  
delivering 90% of the functionality needed for a small site like this.

The only area that caused real problems was the lack of built-in mailer  
support. We attempted to use the plugin but after weeks of trying just  
could not get it to work. This is a bit of a pity as it functionality  
that is always needed in the sites we make.

Thanks to John and everyone on the list who gave generously with their  
time and expertise making Radiant happen.

Regards  
Nathan

Just wanted to echo Sean’s comments. Great work! It’s  
awesome to see the different ways people have used  
Radiant to build their solutions. Congrats again!
