Hi Peli, We pre-stocked openintents application catalog info on the client for the contest. You were the only one who gave us permission, so openintents has great visibility! I'm also trying to get the app in front of some carriers, so you will have a premium spot. By the way we aren't submitting other developer's applications to our web site. I discussed this with my team mates before launch, and we felt that a developer should own their submissions. Again we aren't trying to be a catalog and a developer knows their application best and will be able to provide the application requirements when we start needing those for delivery. So get cracking on those submissions ;) Thanks, Shane > > > Peli > > On Apr 19, 11:41 am, "Shane Isbell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm just trying to clarify SlideME since the feedback we got was > completely > > not the message we are intending to put out there.
