This type of snafu is not unique to Bootuplabs and can happen even to best run orgs (I remember someone here ranting about ill-treatment at Seedcamp last year). I think managing nerds gets a little tricky when high expectations are involved. After enduring the flames,the guys at Bootuplabs have done their best to explain and apologize about the whole incident. I for one think the world needs more startup minded groups like this, not less. As a startup commnunity, I sincerely hope we can be forgiving. |

That's the thing, josephd. They haven't done their best to 'explain and apologize about the whole incident'.

And the thing is, they're still clinging to this hope that it's possible to spin this story to their advantage. It's only at this Techcrunch post that anybody's actually came out and apologized all the way, and even then, Danny's added the qualifier "if you'd been in my shoes ..."
Which is fine, really, except that just 11 hours ago he left a comment to the effect of "we took you to Canada, and then we dropped you, why're you complaining?"
