What are you going to say when you cold-call a prospect? Surely we have just as much need and right to know that information, since you're going to expose it publicly anyhow? I don't see what purpose your secretiveness can serve.

Someone who's prepared to live and breathe the project for a period of 6-12 months to see whether it can really be a great success as I feel it can.
