@gkoberger thanks! I'll be reaching out to folks later this weekend. I'm definitely planning on writing a post-mortem as well if people are interested.

@elwell if it helps, I will be responding to every startup that reaches out, regardless of whether there's enough time slots for us to formally meet. And I'll do my best to be helpful in those responses.

I think that's totally fair feedback regarding the product description. Any suggestions? Also, we agree on the inline navigation. There's some complexities based on the limited information textarea exposes regarding caret positions, but we'll be working on an alternative solution.

@daGrevis thanks for the kind words and feature suggestions. Based on the feedback, it looks like we'll be focusing on better inline navigation support very soon. We haven't talked about the open source route, as we wanted to get a base editor up and running first. We'd love for you to beta test though, as blogging is definitely a use case we'd love to make better.
