[miguel pires <xadrezmiguelpires@xxxxxxxxx>]

I really don't think crowd funding is going to work. Unfortunately to me,
one off a lot of pp that have participated in the crowd funding for Edge,
and have a E4.5, believing in the company (Canonical), i feel that this was
a sort of

betrayal.
Betrayal in the phone/convergence, in the Ubuntu with Unity (the
reason way a switch for Linux), etc...
Betrayal because if they ask for money, probably everyone will help,
but they choose to let pp abandoned so they (The pp u make this
decision) don't deserved my money, time and commitment.

Sorry, I'm really angry about this, not to the team/pp that make the
product, but to the pp that betrayal the trust of many!

Regards

Miguel
