DotCloud guys, if you are reading this, I am not sure if this is a typo on your main page. It looks like it is, but not sure.

>“Wow. DotCloud have been completely amazing. Their support is second to none. They've taken this chore that we hated doing—systems administration—and turned into a magical, fully automated system.”

That's from the testimonial of whereoscope.

The 'have' been. Shouldn't that be 'has been' ?



There is a dialect of English spoken in a certain European country where that usage is common and correct:

Nothing wrong with the usage. Of course (the folks at) DotCloud have been .... is how it is supposed to be. The support being talked of and the attitude of doing the chore of sysadmin is for the people at DotCloud and not the company.


'Have' is standard in most places other than the US.
