This article is a little inaccurate. For the record:<p>- Enterprise Ireland never actually turned us down (though I guess investors rarely explicitly do).<p>- Auctomatic was a WFP '07 company, and myself and John didn't merge 'till April. A lot of the money was raised before we joined.<p>The overall point -- that EI are doing a terrible job of investing in Irish start-ups -- is on the mark, though.<p>--Patrick
