Aurora adopters list

[Dave Lester <da...@davelester.org>]

Hi All,

Given recent growth we've seen in Aurora the numbers of contributors and
public adopters, I think it's time for us to create a more-comprehensive
list of adopters.. README.md (the current home of our list) will soon
become cluttered if we continue to list companies there. :)

Here's my proposal: in addition to updating our list of companies that
are using Aurora in a separate documentation page, it'd be valuable to
share any additional info about how it's being used + some testimonials.
That will, I hope, make this less of a vanity list (like Mesos has) and
more of a resource for folks that are looking at Aurora and trying to
understand how it's useful to them.

If you're currently using Aurora in production or in a significant way,
please tell us about it! I'd love to include you in the revamped
documentation page.

Huge thanks,
Dave

We can match that format pretty easily. Best place to keep this is directly
in the website and not in the source code, i'll work with Dave to help get
it all setup

I agree that the format will not scale.  Steve pointed out to me Docker's
use cases page [1] as an example.  I like their format a *lot* more, since
it gives us a place to indicate the degree to which a company uses our
software.
