I just thought that since my idea matches up with MarsEdit I'd approach you. I don't know that just blindly tracking down every Mac developer is the way to go. I'll post the idea here and see if anyone sees any value. <br /> <br /> I wasn't intending to give you a hard time, by the way. I was actually just linking back to you. <br /> <br /> A I agree entirely. I just thought that since my idea matches up with MarsEdit I’d approach you.

I wasn’t intending to give you a hard time, by the way. I was actually just linking back to you.

OSnews is for news about things that are happening already, not for plans for things that haven't even been set in motion. I have had lots of ideas myself too, I have even tried to suggest them in comments sections of OSnews, yet it seems no one is intersted in them. A specific website meant specifically for opensource project ideas would be the best place: it would give developers a whole lot of content to browse through and select which one they would want to try working on, of course, they would NOT be obliged to see it through. Only as far as they feel inclined. But, why not post your idea here in the meanwhile? Even though the chances are small that one would pick it up it is still possible. Heck, I can do GTK+/QT programming, and both toolkits are portable across several platforms so even I might be interested in your idea if I see any use for it myself :) I don’t think OSnews is the right place for it.

If not, OSNews it and hope some developer with free time is as inspired by the ideas as you are. Are you withholding the ideas because you want to sell them?
