I just talked to Lin Du (who I worked with when I was at Woven), who is =
the current CEO of Pica8. Don't know anything about the product, but =
this didn't seem like Lin's style. Turns out Fontaine GUILLAUME has =
registered pic8.org@gmail.com, has no relation to the company - and is =
trying to prove to them that he should be a reseller. Lin has told =
GUILLAUME to stop (not that that will do any good). Some e-mail =
fragments below. =20
