That's why hardly anyone else has seen my client, the so called "vaporware"

I want to make sure it has everything, and all working well, before I release it. Seems Shareaza had the same philosophy, except that they were completely quiet about it, and I wasn't.

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. If someone releases a commercial Gnutella client with lotsa bugs, it's a bad thing. If someone releases a free or open-source client with very little bugs and lots of options, it's a bad thing too.

I know you have your own opinion about it, but my opinion is: don't be so paranoid!
