That isn't what you did.  Please have the courtesy of being honest with 
everyone, including yourself.

If you had said "I've been working on this new product, we have sold a bunch, 
it's especially useful for this type of situation and it's saved us a lot of 
pain" I can *assure* you that there would not have been ANY negative 
response.  You even posted to the -biz list, which is the exact right place 
to post.

However, you did not do this.  You posted as if you were a random Asterisk 
user who had happened upon this product.  You then furthered the deception by 
continuing to act as if you were just a customer.  You didn't come clean 
until I asked you specifically.

That, Justin, is where the source of the flack is coming from.  You (on 
purpose or not) attempted to deceive us.

Again -- You've created a device and from a "plug it in and go" perspective, 
it rocks.  You're local.  That rocks even more.  You are willing to entertain 
ideas on making the product better.  That's fantastic.  Seriously, a local 
guy who's got a product and we can possibly extend it?  Sign me up!

I can't speak for everyone, but as far as I'm concerned the matter's closed.  
Hell, if we're ever at a TAUG meeting in the future I'd love to discuss 
details of this and other products/projects with you.  I wanted to make 
clear, though, what caused all of this consternation.  I hope that's clear 
now, because it was certainly not you posting about your device; it was how 
you did it that was the problem.
