Hi Fabien,

We use NixOS and NixOps heavily at the company I work for (LogicBlox),
but then again, NixOps was mostly developed for and by us :-)

> 2) Do you follow stable or unstable channel ? Why ? (security, stability...)

We use mainly the stable channel, mostly for stability.

> 3) Are there here some NixOps users ? How many servers are you deploying
> to ?

We have up to a few hundred servers at any time, mostly on EC2, but
also hetzner, Google Compute Engine and bare metal. We have nixops
networks of up to 54 servers in one 'network'.

Cheers,
Rob Vermaas
