Hi Rolf, your personal information and the resulting license data is
sent back and forth over an encrypted SSL connection.  It's more
likely for a man-in-the-middle attacker to get your name and email
address by intercepting actual emails you're sending (most people
don't have their email accounts setup to use SSL by default).

That's a vaild concern, all I can say is that we're not planning to
stop supporting or updating Versions any time soon.  During the public
beta we have done our best to give everybody the best possible
expierience, which sometimes meant scrambling to get a new beta out
when we'd made a stupid decision or mistake (like for instance,
dropping support for SVN 1.4 in beta-5 — oops..).

We never charged for the beta releases because we didn't feel
comfortable asking people for money for something that we didn't
consider ready enough yet.  Now that people are actually paying to use
our software, we're only taking our job more seriously.

Cheers,
- Dirk
