>"Dozens" may sound like a dig at Alexa's ecosystem, but it's an estimation based on a podcast from Skills developers Mark Tucker and Allen Firstenberg, who, in a recent podcast, agreed that "dozens" of third-party devs were contemplating if it's still worthwhile to develop Alexa skills. The casual summary wasn't stated as a hard fact or confirmed by Amazon but, rather, seemed like a rough and quick estimation based on the developers' familiarity with the Skills community. But with such minimal interest and money associated with Skills, dozens isn't an implausible figure either. lol ya, I thought the title was a joke, but apparently their best guess is that there were dozens of developers. This is like a punchline from XKCD.
