Re:IMBlaze a blatant violation (Score 1)

Hi guys, I'm the Owner of IMblaze. Imblaze has NOT been marketed or used in over a year and a half. I launched it the first time knowing about the GPl and was going to obide by it's license, since I read about a guy that started a search engine and a bunch of other website using open source. I thought it was ok...little did I know that my programmer was going to screw me and not give me the SC for gaim to release...snd I realized that using Gaim is not the way to go for the type of project I was trying to create...it was a bit of a contradiction to the point of having an open source IM. So after 4 weeks I shut it down to reporgram an entire new system and my own proprietary IM. I have spoken with Rob Flynn originally and am in contact with Sean Egan. They were both understanding. I apologize for not knowing fully what open source was about a year and a half ago...but now I comprehend all of these different edges of the market. I left the site up just for tyhe hell of it...I knew it wasn't getting traffic so I just wanted to keep the old site up till I launch the new one...but the system is NOT running. I should have disabled the exe link. I will tell my programmer to take it down ASAP...this is not a problem. I even told them before but they couldnt find the file...which was weird so I left it. I will find it one way or another and get it down. The only traffic it is getting now is from Gaim supporters...even check the ranking on alexa.com. Anyways, I would appreciate if you guys can take the post down now and stop flaming me and subscribing me to newsletters and such. I understand your disappointment...but again this has been shut down over a year and a half ago. Josh
