I'm not sure I understand the question. The only changes are that network connectivity will be provided by a sponsor, under their "help-the-community" program. There is an acknowlegment to the sponsor on the splash page and in the faq. I'm shipping my computer to the sponsor next week. If I had wished to pursue a profit, there would have to be two changes. One is I'd probably have to find another source of network connectivity, or re-negotiate the current agreement with the sponsor. The other thing required would be revenue of more than $0. While I can afford spending on hardware writing custom software out of my pocket, I can no longer afford network connectivity out of pocket. This is the most graceful way I could find to continue running the service, in the absense of revenue. Jeff
