The port of the software was started and completed to its current state in the course of 5 weeks by myself.... If that is not fast enough reaction for you, I am not sure what is. I personally am responsible for the technical side, and can not comment on the business side of things from the standpoint of how long it took to make the deal.... Stop looking for the bad in everything and realize people are trying to make a difference and working their butts off in the process.

My understanding of the contract is that the exact numbers are not to be disclosed. You will have to talk to Glenn directly for any information on numbers since this is my understanding. I will comment no further on equity issues. I of course will be happy to comment on any technical/mindshare kinds of issues, since that is my job....
