By the 2nd question, did you mean how are we communicating programmatically w/ SL via the libSecondLife library, or did you mean communications with Linden Labs themselves?
I think you meant communications via email... We've been in contact with Linden (Glenn Fisher, who I believe is in charge of developer programs) for a little while now. In fact he is the one that pointed us to your project. We're trying to push the importance of them creating an open API, and I honestly think they are working on it, but they are pretty slammed right now just keeping the grid going with all this growth and attention.
If you meant programatically... well we're still getting there. I'm trying to figure out the whole libSecondLife stack still and what's done vs. what's missing, and kind of you guys' whole process for discovering and reversing various things... Obviously there are some extremely bright people on this thing. I get the basic principles of working with the packets, but now I want to see how to tie it all together for something a bit complex, like making my AV create a new object (cube), and save it to my inventory.
Btw: my in game name is RyeDin Meiji (I founded the Foundation for Rich Content (FFRC) back late last year, but had to abandon it to the other officers when RL hit hard)

EEK! A teaser post.
What's the startup's name, and why/how are you communicating with SL?
