It really seems like the Ruby community does this to people who do great things. Another good example of this is Zed Shaw/Mongrel. However, I'd have to say, being a loyal user of capistrano, I am not sure that I could have brought anything

can't get it to run on OS X. It complains about an initialization error with portaudio :(. Maybe the MacPorts version of PA does not work with it?

I'd like to know the answer to this too, I feel like there are a ton of viable options out there now, but I am waiting to see who stands out as defacto. The ZumoDrive/iTunes integration is truly innovative, though. Majorly cool!

you could have your application do some sort of authenticated request for it on a server maybe? Or better yet, proxy all of your api requests through your server? I don't know, seems like a lot of runaround to me.

interesting, but I don't see this catching on, nor do I see my grandparents getting this at all.

I am very excited about this platform, can't wait to see what the development process is like!

This looks very promising, but its sort of off-putting that they don't explicitly define their pricing. Is that a sign that its pricey? I was also looking into blinksale and its API integration, thoughts?

I've heard of this library, but does it provide a front-end admin type system? For doing things like reports and dashboards? Or is that something we have to build internally. If we have to build it internally, that is what we are trying to

I use the standard Ruby Test::Unit framework, with ThoughtBot's Shoulda extensions. I enjoy the standardization of the xUnit family, but the RSpec-y contexts and definitions are great too! best of both worlds!

I would be interested in a clarification, how do you find people who want to work as equity partners for your startup? IE: smart developers who want to be a part of a growing company.

Apple's approach to this whole development platform is really starting to bother me. I won't be investing in it until I can learn more about it from some of the most trusted authors in the biz.

you aren't getting it. we already PLAN to take the money, we want help with HOW to move FORWARD. I am not conflicted about the process whatsoever, I just wanted help figuring out how to go forward with this investor.

Actually, we've spent the last year as _consultants_, we haven't been able to develop the product yet. We are starting that this month. Also, we are approaching potential schools to sign up for the project up front as well, giving them a de

Again, they are aware of the fact this is a high risk investment and are prepared to call it a wash. They believe in what we are doing and that its going to be a good product for education. Isn't that what investment is all about?

we didn't start this business to be consultants, I hate consulting...I did it for 6 years before we started our company, we want to build our product first and foremost. we've spent the last year writing software for other people (again), a

Interesting concept. I started my company as a self-funded/bootstrap system. We did consulting for the first 10 months and were very successful and got our company honed to a very solid level not only financially, but conceptually as well.

seriously, I am really tired of seeing posts that are just "SHIP THAT SHIT" or "SHIP IT YESTEDAY!" or "OMG I CAN HAS SHIPZ?!" seriously, spend some time thinking about what you are trying to accomplish and adjust accordingly.
