Hi Jeroen:
I understand your position and respect your beliefs.
I happen to disagree. My "love" is better expressed elsewhere. I think
it was Groucho Marx who said it best, and I paraphrase: "Please accept
my appologies. I don't want to belong to any club that would accept
people like me as a member".
Kind Regards,
Ruth

Hi Ruth,
To me it's very simple:
Ofbiz Community = ofbiz.apache.org = ofbiz.org
And if you want to express your love that's the place!

Hi Jeroen:
If this was a directed to me, then:
1) My enterprise is not a money making, "commercial" concern. My mission has
always been to provide high quality affordable learning resources to the
community at large. My view of the "community" is anyone looking for OFBiz
materials, not just project committers. The only way I can possible afford
to do that is charge a nominal fee for some of these books. And, believe me,
I'm not making any money on this endeavor. As I've said before, it is a
labor of love.
2) Want to donate money to help the cause? Buy some of my books. You will
help pay for the server and hosting, quality content creation tools,
professional editors, SME's time in reviewing materials...and I could go on.
Regards,
Ruth

the subscription cost is a problem I'm willing to make a donation in
order to keep the domain within the community.
