HN policy, as stated by PG on several occasions, is that companies should not identify themselves as "YC rejects". There are several good reasons for this -- search the archives if you want to know more.

Ok, great. Does this run on my OS of choice? Will you send me spam if I put my address in that box? I'm assuming the answer to both questions is no, but you should have that information on your website.

Does it support github? Does it support osx? If not then it's probably irrelevant to half the people on here. I might be able to figure this out for myself, but I won't enter my email address on a site with no privacy policy in order to download a beta that may/may not work.

You know...just because you were rejected once doesn't mean you're permanently rejected from YC. You can apply multiple times.<p>IMHO you would have been much better off launching with a title describing what you do. If you prove to be a success within the HN community (and beyond), your chances of getting in to YC the next time are much higher.<p>Besides, by actually launching you're showing (not telling) perseverance, execution and a willingness to listen to feedback. Don't ruin it.

How is this different from having version control away from my work computer ?<p>I never have more then a day or twos work on my computer, so the most i can loose is a days work -- hardly seems worth having extra backup software for that case.

I don’t think it was smart for you to identify your startup as "yc reject" here, you will be eaten alive : (

What, exactly, does this have over any modern VCS? The website probably needs to be super-clear about this.

Could you put the minimum requirements (especially OS) on the download page?

Download is a Windows .exe so I can't tell what it does. What I can tell is that it <i>doesn't</i> "Works with any IDE or code editor".

What I'm hearing from these comments is that there is not enough product information for a technical audience. It's possible that you are marketing to a group that does not want the same product information as us, but it's not clear. Are you marketing version control to non-savvy users?

Instead of identifying yourself as a "YC Reject" why not state what your startup does?

I just don't get it. How is this different and/or better than standard svn/git types systems?
