Haha yeah. I wanted to totally redo the site last night to be clearer but
instead just tried to put a summary in the email.  Ran out of time.

As far as the chromecast, all the loop holes getting closed you may have

possible in the future, I lost a lot of the drive behind that when it took
them what? a year to release the SDK and broke days of work.
