Calm down man.


I understand your current situation leaves no money for software.

Revolution starter used to be Gratis, but is no longer. It was never Free, in the sense of Liberty, Free Software, Free Beer. Why do you now take this as a personal affront?

Have you thought of applying for a grant to pay for your software development? If you are writing multimedia software in an educational setting, and not being compensated at least for materials needed, then it seems there are a lot of foundations and programs that would grant you a stipend for that.

However the tone of your post leaves me with little sympathy. If your situation will be like this for the long term, maybe you should use an Open Source programming environment like... Python, Ruby or Squeak-Smalltalk? Open Source tools are guaranteed to remain Free, as long as there is a maintainer.
