note that for some organisation, paying through credit card and internet billing is not accepted...
I've bought the doc on my own money, with no hope get it back, whatever I show as a proof... the only thing accepted is an official bill on paper with a company stamp. for 10$ I've accepted, 30$ became annoying and impose even much motivation regular subscription fee of 30$ is above professional involvement... passion may justify it, but it's private. I'm not sure that people that are already doubtful will accept to pay for their work, and this may limit jboss market development, out of a small community of passionate people. so, whatever is the price, there should be an alternative "B2B" billing system compatible with foreign customs, tax laws, and narrow minded account managers. making a bill with 10$ doc, 30$ subscription, and 50$ billing cost would be OK, given the fact that the bill is accepted officialy in my company. another idea could be to organize a way for intermediate (bookstores, IT resalers...) to sell the PDF or printed version... > -----Message d'origine----- > De: marc fleury [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Date: mercredi 9 janvier 2002 21:03 > �: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Objet: Re: [JBoss-dev] RH docs > > > we are trying to set up a program with Flashline where we > would offer a subscription service that gives you access to > all the documentation for a flat fee. > The "upgrade" to the 2.4 documentation is just too much > infrastructure for flashline it seems that for the next > iteration already they have problems given the number of > individual updates they need to do. > > The subscription would be simpler but we are not sure they > can take care of the billing for this, we will keep you posted. > > It would be reasonably priced like $30 for 6 month something > like that, with content and all documentation included.
