Yacketi-Yacketi-Yacketi-Yack. Bla bla bla. Yada yada yada.
I call bollocks on you neopwn. And on your project. I've been an OS supporter for a number of years, a dedicated user, and an understanding contributor. More than anything, I understand the need to feed a family, but you're going a bit too far.
There's open source, and then there's vaporware. When you released the teasers, I was a happy camper. I finally felt that we were getting somewhere, and praised your word on multiple media. Now, you're sounding more and more like a snake oil salesman. Sorry.
You're moaning that nobody donated? You never asked for it, and never gave us anything so we would. You're moaning that Open Source devs are shallow and can't commit in the long run? What cave have you been living in? You never asked for help, so don't cry when you run out of steam.
Nobody (except for the parties involved) knows what happened between you and the BT devs. No matter how hard you try to convince yourself, we can't smell despair. Especially when you don't communicate.
Do you want help from some of the greatest minds in this community, with regards to things such as (but not limited to) project management, donation hunting, coding, packaging, installer development? Then dump your work on an FTP, or bittorent, dump your code and documentation on gitorious, and watch it take off and fly uninterrupted around the world. You will have hordes of supporters and contributors, and you won't have to manage all of it and burn out as you just did.
You decided to do this. You decided to do it on your own. You decided to think everyone who lays hands on whatever you've created is a ***** and will blow up a nuke plant nearby. You put yourself in this mess, so please at least have the courtesy to accept that.
Also accept the nearly unlimited help you would receive if you were to open up. I know MohammadAG and I were nearly checking daily for something. MohammadAG is exactly the kind of guy you could use, but you're spitting in everyone and their brother's face by behaving like this.
You want to share your microsd? Use dd and share it. You want to make a few bucks? Then say so. Be frigging honest.
Anyone can create the teasers you've created. How the hell do you expect us to take you seriously. For all we know, the MAC changing feature just modifies a field in Qt. The bash script just uses wait and prints whatever you want it to. There's no proof that you've accomplished anything. Feel free to join IRC to discuss this further.
Again, I call bollocks.
PS: You're the one who promised and didn't deliver, so yes, you owe us. Those who donated got conned. Don't mount your high-horse now. You're a fraud, nothing less, nothing more. I'm serious about this. There is a lot to be done, but it is nothing if you allow others to help. Open up and move on.
