It's comments like yours that give you and your company a bad name. As you well know btc1, a Bitcoin client that implements segwit2x is developed by Jeff Garzik who is in fact a Bitcoin developer and has been for a very long time. Your entire argument boils down to a no true Scotsman logical fallacy. ie: these people disagree with me therefore they are not Bitcoin developers.

  That's a censored list controlled by theymos.

  The only developers on that list are associated with Core or are on the record as strongly supporting Core. That website is also not a neutral party.

Nonsense, Jeff hasn't been a Bitcoin developer for years. I believe he's mostly been involved with Ethereum for a long time. People aren't saying he isn't a developer because they disagree, but because showing up and making a toy software fork doesn't grant you credibility or experience. ... and, in fact, he's shown that he doesn't have it pretty thoroughly, for example his code only managed to actually increase the blocksize a couple hours before his first release candidate because he completely misunderstood how it worked.

  Jeff G. has a long history as an open source contributor including as a Bitcoin developer. I'm not sure why you think it's professional behavior for you the CTO of a prominent crypto currency company to trash someone like this in a public forum.
