Hi there...

Thank you for your interest in participating in the Rubicon Project private Beta. We appreciate that you're eager to get started.

As you're well aware we're just getting started which means there is a lot of product development and refinement taking place. We could have waited before going into Beta but we're an aggressive company that strongly believes in the benefits of the solution we're developing. Everyone is running at 1,000 miles a hour. We're in the process of pushing batches of sites live, collecting feedback, developing clear communication avenues, refining the product and the myriad of other things you do when growing a quality-driven company.

We've had a chance to review your site and as much as we'd like to get you moving, we feel you'll benefit far more from participating in our next release. After all, we want your first experience with us to be a great one. Don't worry, it won't be long. We're eyeing early next year as the target date. In the meantime, we'd love to hear from you and get to know you better. Visit the forum and share your thoughts. Check out our culture section and get to know the people behind the company. Email us (care@rubiconproject.com or just hit reply) with anything you feel like sharing.

We're working on a lot of things to benefit you right now and appreciate your patience. We look forward to working with you!

Happy holidays,

Your Rubicon Project Team

My reply: You don't want 60,000+ "human" impressions a day?

Great... I'll spend my efforts elsewhere... and when your "next release" comes along, I'll already be busy putting money in someone else's pocket and you'll lose then as you do now.

Please remove me from any mail list or updates... as I'm not interested!

Please brush up on your English and skip the double speak...

"We're working on a lot of things to benefit you right now and appreciate your patience."

Makes a lost of sense... you are going to do something to benefit me NOW when I have to wait for the next phase!

You guys need to get out of technology projects and go into politics!

Aside... I never did figure out what EXACTLY they did before I apply and have no idea now... but there seems to be more hype than reality so I don't feel left out.

Oh, and I missed this in their email: "We're eyeing early next year as the target date.". Since I applied and they replied to me in 2008, that means I have a full year to wait till "early next year".

Have you tried PubMatic instead?

PubMatic has no method to deal with multiple domains (at least not in the sign up part).

Next, you may connect your PubMatic account to our direct ad network partners by either linking an existing account or letting us create a new account for you. Just click on the appropriate button, and we will step you through the process. And don’t worry, you can always add more networks later.

Now that is:

1) an Exercise in frustration and 2) I would think leaves you at risk for having any of your accounts terminated for violating their terms and conditions... ie: your use of the advertiser network is OUT of your hands... and I believe some if not all prohibit the use of automated queries...

it is good thing has shown above .but in my points you should be more specific about product and give more knowledge .
