Many thanks to you and the others who attended the Q&A chats. The
general consensus seems to be that Global Jams are as good a thing for
LiveCode as they are for other open source projects, so I imagine we'll
have more in the future.

Definitely room for improvement, but I think a lot of it has to do with
gaining more familiarity with the Google Hangout interface. I've seen
it used very productively in the Ubuntu Developer Summits and their
Global Jams, so I know it can work.
Perhaps we should consider video chats outside of Global Jam events on a
regular basis? Maybe just addressing community issues and projects?
Practice makes perfect. :)

Like the Linux Foundation, the LiveCode open source project offers both
individual and student membership packages, which include a livecode.org
email address.
It's a great way to support the project, and includes learning materials
and other good benefits as well - check it out:

One of the more interesting benefits there is an answer for those using
the Community Edition who'd like to deploy to the iOS app store:
Free App iOS Store Licensing
Submit named, free apps to the iOS App store.
Perfect if you’re just starting out creating completely free
software with the LiveCode Community edition. The Apple iOS
App Store is currently incompatible with the GPL license, so
while you can distribute your free software for other platforms
such as Android, you can’t submit to the Apple store.
As a LiveCode Member you can submit your free noncommercial
app to us and we will provide a license that will allow you
to submit your app "closed source" to the iOS app store. This
service is exclusively available to LiveCode Members. The first
submission each year is free, after that there is a $25
administration fee per submission.
