Have some pride indy devs! Try to build better mouse traps you can own rather than half-hearted rip offs you will feel defensive about. If you have an uncomfortable feeling about releasing something its probably there for a reason ... listen to it. You will be doing everyone a favor, the users, your developer peers and the platform as a whole.
