Network render addon - alpha testers wanted!

Hi everyone :) I've been advised by Ton that this is a good place to reach out to the blender community. So, here goes.

My name is James, my self and my buddy Jeremy presented at blender conference 2016 on an addon we're working on. The addon connects computers together so that you can render on any number of computers, from just two up to large numbers in a studio setting. The unique part is that you don't have to manage files or continually upload data, just connect and then even small changes are propagated automatically.

We'd really love feedback from the community on our work, and to do that we're currently building an alpha which will be made available to download from our website. This is planned for early 2017.

If you would like to test this addon when it is available, please visit our website - crowdrender.com.au - where you can subscribe to be notified of when the alpha can be downloaded.

In the mean time, please take a look at our youtube videos :)
