I'm sorry but I have to comment on this.  I do stuff for free all the time,
but if someone just EXPECTED it I would be seriously pissed off, and
probably have a bad taste about future free projects.  When you think about
all the time and energy that the council members, and lee and Eric and Erki
and all the other people around here spend writing apps and tools and giving
tech support it amazes me that anyone could come back with something like
this.  John you have bills right?  You want toys too?

I'm (almost) speechless.

I believe you ought to pay a man for his work steve... but when you make a
general announcement... it is disappointing to find out it is pay only. You
do a great job on development, keep the system positive, let us know in
advance.

Excel. It's
pretty wild.
