Doh! - My Secret Agenda Revealed...

Ha! Ha!  Thanks for the laugh Justin!

Seriously now.  How anyone can come to the conclusion I have a secret agenda to promote some other product when I am in the process of contributing smoke, and fighting hard to keep features working with WiX Toolkit is a mystery to me, but I guess stranger things have happened…

For the Record:
I have NO AFFILIATION with any company anywhere.  I am NOT pimpin’ any commercial product, and frankly, even if someone wanted to pay me to evangelize their product, I don’t think they could afford me (but they are welcome to try!).  I’ve got big plans for the future and a great relationship with industry leaders like Wise and InstallShield.  I may do work for them from time to time, but the only agenda I am pushing is my own, and there is certainly nothing sinister about that...

FYI it was this page:
http://www.zerog.com/newsItems/activeInstall_news.html
which lead me to believe you worked for Zero G, in particular the bit which says "Michael Sanford, CEO of ActiveInstall Corporation, has joined Zero G to lead the development. "

Fair enough if you've since quit or if that release is a load of rubbish, but I don't think it was an unfair assumption of mine to make that you worked there (and hence if you did you would have the requisite wheelbarrow full of secret agendas ;-D )

And yeah I do have a kind of different sense of humour - probably has a small amount to do with living on the other side of the world or something... Cheers

Geez! You're like "Detective Google" or something!

Anyways -- I fulfilled my contractual obligations to that company over 6 months ago and have NO further relationship with them. That's about all I can safely say on the subject. ;-)

If people were following the the WIX-Users Mailing list, they would find that it has been a little hot recently. The first instance (as far as my knowledge goes) was with Michael creating a validation tool for the WIX Toolset called 'smoke'. I personally
