I think without launching with a myriad of SDKs and libs isn't the smartest idea. People want to be able to get up and play and not wait for a product.
I get the idea about judging demand and stuff like that, but if I wanted to integrate this into something, I sure as hell wouldn't want to have to write my own SDK for it, especially since it's a new service that I don't know will last. Launching without my code in mind means that someone isn't as dedicated to their product as I might be. That's scary.
I kindly suggest a repost in a month with the title, "Show HN: Hoomi Libraries, a New Single Sign-On Service for x, y, z, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, ... w."
I hear you, and SDKs really are available to those who email us for the private beta (in fact, we have both iOS and Android apps in the app store using us now). We're getting the documentation together and finalizing things as quickly as possible. In the meantime, we want to let people start evaluating the product as early as possible.
Regardless, thanks for your feedback, and rest assured that more SDKs are coming in very short order. We're not just testing the waters with the Android SDK -- the SDKs for a variety of platforms are nearly complete and will be available soon.
