this website is “too large and provides a poor user experience”

After creating a handheld version of Acts of Volition for your PDA using AvantGo’s fine software, I applied to be an ‘official AvantGo Channel’. Lured by the promise of free publicity and a free listing on the AvantGo Channel website, I attempted to submit the online form. This did nothing but spit out ugly server errors (apparently they were ‘upgrading the servers’). After a few days of trying, I finally gave up and emailed my submission only to receive this reply weeks later (note the intuitive subject line):

Steven,
   As the channel is currently built we cannot launch it on the service. There are a number of off-site links that need to be either removed or disabled. Otherwise, the channel is too large and provides a poor user experience. Please let me know when this has been resolved.

Thanks,
Daniel

No problem Daniel.
