And you and I both know Amy what has happened in the past when an author has gone to "paid" staus. It disrupted everything here for a while. You had authors right and left thinking they could code anything and sell it via the org (in sigs, etc.). And we spent more time dealing with "I have been screwed by so-and-so, he now has my money and is gone" type threads/posts than anything for a while here.
No matter how you work it, once Jelsoft sanctions commercial hacks here, then they (and staff here) will end up being the ones to answer for whatever pops up concerning those hacks. Sure, it looks good on paper, but to actually implement it and make it work will be about as possible as me ever becoming a coder as good as Andreas. Does that sum it all up?
