Oh cool, I didn't even know that such an event took place over here.
I attended by invitation. The organisers were fully aware of my role
in CrossWire.
Aside: CrossWire is a non-income Society, so the question of making a
payment to a copyright owner for a distribution license simply does
not arise.
I guess the following would be required:
- A non-profit organisation, that is legally allowed to charge their
users to pay for the license fees.
- Some kind of payment / unlock system integrated with sword
- Some additional administration efforts due to that
- Dealing with the fiscal system and your donors every year
In Germany it's pretty easy to set up non profit orgs like that. You
just need the man power for it ...
There's actually a well known and big open source project that runs its
organization based on a non-profit in Germany (KDE e.v.
<https://ev.kde.org/> for the KDE desktop).
Best regards,
Tobias
