One thing is that I would happily donate. And if I get a download link as "thank you", that's OK for me. On the other hand: If I knew I would never get a windows build anymore without donation, it would actually be buying, not donating. Nevertheless, for me it's worth it. A completely different thing is that this is an open source project driven by volunteers and volunteers do the work that they choose, of course. And if there is no volunteer do to the windows work, then it is not done. It's as simple as that. I would find it a pity but I could not complain. Then there is commercial software development and why shouldn't somebody do this work for money alongside with all other work he does for a living? There is nothing wrong about that. The arguments Rich brought have to be considered by you developers but if you choose to loose some windows users as a trade-off for not having to do this particularly complicated and unappealing work, that's your decision. And a decision I can understand. (My guess is that in the long run some windows user who is able to do that will step in as it happened with PPC.) regards Joachim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
