Hi Cathal,
I responded to your survey earlier. I'm probably one of the people you can lump into "didn't contribute due to wanting more information".
For the sake of friendly discussion,
--I'm a grad student, and get to do the bio I'm really interested in at "work." So I would only use IndieBB myself if it offers something I can't get on Addgene etc.
--However, I'm very supportive of DIYbio and educational tools being available to public. I'd be willing to fund just for that reason.
--What worries me is the unproven non-antibiotic selection. If it was easy, we'd already be seeing more of it...
--I've witnessed someone i respect getting their kickstarter funded, spending the $, and ultimately not being able to deliver...it ain't pretty
--Don't get me wrong, you seem to have a lot of plasmid/gene hacking knowledge (definitely more than me!)
--Link to the blog post with details sounds great!
--Some endorsements from respected biologists (DIY or academic) would be nice...this is one thing that made me feel good about Glowing Plant
