The traffic laws are also clear enough to me, still I'm occasionally
prone to a parking violation.
He he, Marcel would rather pay a parking fine than buy a QL software ;-)
And you really think that people who didn't even care enough to keep a
copy of their OWN software would try prosecuting somebody for putting
it online?
Probably not, but I'd personally rather not risk it. I'm not rich enough.
There are plenty of sharks around (solicitors waiting for any excuse to
pounce).
In other words, I broadly agree with what you say, and I have sympathy with
Rich's position too. In an ideal world...
Anyway, QLing these days is about nostalgia and hobby (that word, retro). If
anyone wants to buy new QL software, that's fine, if they don't, that's fine
too. Let the market decide - Rich would soon stop selling them if nobody
bought them.
Ultimately, the people who p***ed Rich off might well end up costing us the
whole preservation project unless someone else is prepared to step in -
ideally someone with no commercial interests so that this side of it isn't a
problem in the future.
