I guess my first question is, what does your LMS have to offer which would
make someone choose it over, say Moodle or Claroline?

Not that I doubt your system's potential, it's just that when others have
reached critical mass with full-time, paid developers, and a large
community, etc., any new entrant will need to have something that makes
them different and makes people prefer it substantially over those others.
Otherwise the best use of effort might be to contribute to furthering one
of those other projects rather than reinventing them.
