Sometimes I think I wish it was. But I really don't yet know smooth's coding and productivity. Based on our conversations, I assume he is at or above my level of capability in terms of knowledge of programming (but I might be on a different level of creativity that is hard to quantify, I dunno). But I don't have verification. I should study his Aeon commits but I don't have time.

I like smooth. He has been very fair with me and helped me also. He even paid/donated  a few BTC one time to me. It pains me that smooth is the leader for the community that has a few bad apples who have to be so acrimonious. Having said that, I like iCEBREAKER's humor. He is not the problem for me. I feel debt of gratitude or even a real debt to smooth.

I like smooth, but I think he is going about this community and open source thing the wrong way. Crypto-currency is not Linux. I may be wrong. Any way, I am not feuding with smooth. I just wish he wouldn't delete my posts. I don't make many posts in the Monero Speculation thread.  Any way, no he is not my "co-developer".

Smooth may know things about my plans that others don't know. Not because I told him lately, but because I told him a lot last summer, so he may be able to deduce certain things. I trust him to not reveal to anyone for another month or less. Soon all will be public knowledge. And no deal is final yet. So there is a chance I don't proceed.
