    I can appreciate the frustration here and as a relative newcomer to Meta, I want to spend some more time here talking with the team and learning about the history. I'm hoping to have more to share next week, I'll try and update the thread here.

    That said, I do want to be clear—the point at which this escalates into a legal matter is the point at which I can no longer help you. If that's something you want to pursue then go for it, but I have to close the conversation and refer you elsewhere.

      Thanks for the response, Casey.

      To be clear, I don’t believe this is a legal issue, pursuing that route would be a fool’s errand given how heavily the system favors large corporations. What I am doing is appealing to you, and to Meta as an organization I supported from the very beginning through the Oculus Kickstarter, to step up.

      This situation calls for more than a simple apology and quiet closure. It demands recognition of the systemic breakdown in communication and delivery, a plan for how Meta intends to fix it, and a serious discussion about how to compensate developers for the significant time lost chasing SDK features that were publicly promoted but not functional.

      If this hasn't already been escalated, I strongly encourage you to do so. I genuinely hope this conversation won’t just be closed, as I would much rather not escalate further. But at the same time, it’s clear there’s a lot of dry timber here, and ignoring it won’t prevent a fire.

      Good—that’s a perspective I can appreciate and engage with. I’ll come back to this thread when I have something to discuss, but I can at least say that this is the sort of thing I take very seriously, and shining a light on breakdowns like this is one of the reasons why we have a community team at all.

        I know it can be frustrating, but you haven't been forgotten. I'm learning a lot but I don't want to come back and share anything publicly unless I can stand behind it 100%, so I want to confirm a few things.

        "I want to confirm a few things."  Have you had a chance to confirm yet?  I am getting closer to needing to know where OpenXR is in regards to being viable for the Meta Avatars.

         

        Thanks for the help!!!!
