Hi Amy, everyone, I looked through the RuleModeler source a while ago with the thought of possibly modernizing it and releasing it on the App Store. Since a lot of the code is licensed under LGPL, unless you can isolate the LGPL code into a library and simply link to it, whatever you release on the App Store will need to also be available as source code. (I am not a lawyer and don't construe what I'm saying as actual legal advice, it's simply my interpretation of the license statement. Yadda, yadda, yadda.)
I think there is still a market for people to pay for a compiled binary as opposed to downloading and building the source themselves. We need to find opportunities to _let_ people give money to WOCommunity beyond memberships and WOWODC attendance. Whether it's through donations, purchases or bug bounties.
