Alright, it's pretty disappointing that after so many months that still isn't an easy to use wallet. What's the ETA for an alpha release of Omniwallet?
I'm dissapointed too. I was hoping for more.

I think that one of the key wins we have after these months is ... we finally got a development rythm going, and understand a lot better where we want to be in 1 week, 3 months, 6 months.

The development speed of the Omniwallet has been incredible, and we're going to pick up speed and consistency in the upcoming weeks. We are finally starting to enter a weekly scrum cycle, are focusing our development efforts into 2 wallets instead of 4, and have a clear idea of where we're headed.

True, it would have been nice to have better wallets at this point in time. However please remember it's a marathon, not a sprint, and we learned a ton from the last months ... and that the key product of a startup is validated learning (read 'validated learning' in The Lean Startup).



That's all well and good, but you're still starting from scratch... again. If it takes Mastercoin over 7 months just to "get a development rythm going", how can it possibly compete?

No one said anything about "starting from scratch".

v0.0.1 of Omniwallet was released 10 days ago. How many projects (wallets, parsers, explorers) has the Mastercoin project begun and suddenly abandoned? But I'm sure this one will be awesome.
