The software that I continue to work towards releasing (QDT) will have a cost for it but it will be reasonable - QL community based. Obviously, I would never even get enough out of the sales to pay for even a very small percentage of the time invested into it, but perhaps enough for a trip to a show (if I fly cheap :) ).
The reasons for putting a price on the software are two fold:
- the project is so large that the price will indicate to me that people appreciate (or not) the work and the finished product. This is more of a principle thing than not.
- two, the vendors need to get paid for distributing it and handling the customers. I don't have time for that or the energy, especially being here in the States. Not to mention, the vendors deserve a lot for helping keep this all going.
Your project will certainly justify being sold on a commercial basis, and you will deserve any small reward that comes your way.
PS - Any chance of someone actually changing the subject header ... as it is still 'Quanta Workshop in Norwich' ... :-)
