Yes, it's true, there are actually those of who make software (and make it better) for no other reason but the sake of the betterment of ourselves and the community at large.
Now, I'm not saying that I wouldn't mind someone clicking on the "Donate" button on my site, but... I don't live from day to day waiting for that. I do it because someone has to do it. And when you care like that, it's easy to put out good quality software. Things are so much easier that way. --Kyle From: Philip Hutchison Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 11:10 PM To: swfobject@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Internet Explorer warning Aran is actually an automated bot I wrote in college. Works pretty well, eh? I even managed to implement an Aussie attitude to make it more realistic. ;) In all seriousness, I can't answer for Aran, but speaking on my own behalf, everything has been 100% volunteer and mostly done during off-time (nights and weekends). Geoff and Bobby (the SWFObject authors) may have been able to spend some time on it while working for their respective employers, but this has mostly been a labor of love for everyone involved. Same as any open-source project, I assume. - philip On Mon, Mar 23, 2009 at 8:43 PM, Doug <dbitter...@gmail.com> wrote: Aran, thank you very much. You are exactly right. Can I ask you another question? (Actually several questions.) You have a great service here - your code works great, you have tremendous documentation, the support is unsurpassed - and its all for free! I've paid good money for software that isn't as good as this! How do you do it? What's in it for you guys? We all know there is no free lunch, but could it be that there is free software? PLEASE respond to this post - I'm dying to know how you do it! Thanks for doing a great job!
