That's very kind of you to say. I appreciate it. I like to be super-realistic, which may come across as lack of self belief. I'm happy to celebrate my successes, however with this project - I'm keenly aware that little has been achieved yet. From my point of view, I would be reluctant to join someone elses idea, so I presume there's a limited number of people that would be willing to take that kind of risk. I do feel that I have a lot to bring to the table in a partnership,in lots of areas, including technical thinking & ability. Right now what's needed is everything I don't have and I'm respectful of that. A few months & a self built prototype down the line it would be a much more equal partnership. I've been to those events and I'd hate to ever be pigeon-holed as someone who wants someone else to do the work for them based on little proof. They are often oblivious to the learning, planning, effort that goes into building something. I only know because I've tried and will continue to try. I've been careful to outline what I've done so far, as I welcome the advice given by the HN community. I agree that instead of being quietly confident I should push myself forward more.
