Al, please accept my congratulations on your ability to use WhoIs and Google, and my condolences on the loss of your sense of propriety. As I said before, I'm happy to discuss my background with anyone who expresses interest in the idea. I never expected to have total anonymity - although I do know ways to achieve that, were I certain that it was warranted. I simply wasn't sure I wanted to advertise my involvement to the whole world as it might cause my clients to worry that I would be distracted from their projects. Thank you for making that decision for me - you clearly know better than I do what's best for my business.
I don't know how I have "hit" your "button"... II have done nothing to attack you and have only defended my idea... a simple idea to try to make things better for the individual Android developer. I admit that the $200 application fee was a mistake... but that's the only thing I think I've done wrong here, and yet you feel it necessary to publicly examine and pass judgment on my life. The funny thing is that you state: "There are over 2,000 members of the android-discuss list and over 10,000 on android-developers, access to all these people is free, you can team up with any number of them as you want, negotiate profit and work sharing agreements on a per- project basis, and choose the distribution methods you wish to use." This is really all I'm trying to do. I just put some structure around it and proposed it in an open forum. I'm done discussing this with you, Mr. Sutton. Please don't respond to this. If anyone else is interested in discussing it further, please let me know.
