Hi! Thanks a bunch for your reply.  

I don't have any involvement in PayBase, GAWminers, Garza, etc. However, I will note that if you see some of my posts on the Bitcoin Foundation forum, you will see that I have been heavily cautioning people against what I generally refer to as "web-wallets and web-based exchanges" for reasons that are better seen in the details in my posts on that forum.  Failure-prone, surveillance-prone, or scam-prone services can be avoided.  If you are interested in that stuff please see, for example:

Re. Candidate interviews -

So far as I am aware CCN did interview of all the candidates that would respond to them - I think there is a full list of the interviews here:
https://bitcoinfoundation.org/forum/index.php?/topic/1221-candidate-interviews-without-digression/

Not sure if they (CCN) have more candidate interviews to release there and add to that list, they have been releasing them in alphabetical order by first name.

I confirm that this one is indeed me: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/colin-gallagher-bitcoin-foundation-elections/

The Let's Talk Bitcoin group will release audio sometime on Feb. 10th of all the candidates in a debate (it goes on for a couple hours). It'll be seen here:   https://letstalkbitcoin.com/  And yes, I was one of the participants!  I think there were 8 or 9 of us... myself, Bruce Fenton, Cody Wilson, to name a few.  It was fun.

I am (finally) settling into a reddit AMA date... but hoping to get an idea from people here as to when they'd like to see it happen, so let me know if you have suggested dates.  (The 12th & 13th of Feb won't work, but dates before that yes. Feb. 10 or 11? Weigh in here.)

edit: Date has now been chosen for reddit AMA as Feb. 11, time TBD.

Any questions you have for me please free to post here, I will reply as soon as I see it!
