I just got home from work (day job, etc).  I have agreed to do an interview, however, I will need to discuss which questions I am able to answer with the rest of the dev team before it happens.  I don't worry about the tech being "stolen".  That said, I am still extremely limited on what I am able to discuss openly not for fear of "stolen tech", but because implementation details are subject to change at least until the 2.0 Whitepaper is released.

Once again, Xircom is the PR manager for the team, and for the most part he should be the one being interviewed, though I can see why any journalist would want to hear directly from the programmer.  Keep in mind though, that we are a team.  Not just the dev team, but the community is a part of this team as well.  While I may be the one that writes the code that the "team" wants, I don't make the decisions.  In that, I'm investing my time and hard work into this project, just as many of you have invested your time, effort, and money.

Once I have had the chance to meet with the team and discuss what questions are absolutely off limits (I already have a pretty good idea what I cannot answer) then I will contact you via PM to schedule something proper.

Thanks.
