Dear List Members,

We  are hugely excited to be launching this project today:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1755283828/open-source-edition-of-livecode

Join our campaign to make a full version of LiveCode that is free and open for 
everybody to use. We are doing this via a Kickstarter fundraiser, and we need 
your help. If we are successful, between us we can change the face of 
programming forever.

Open Source LiveCode means

- Free access for teachers
- Free access for students
- Free access for hobbyists and enthusiasts
- A headstart for professionals

I know that many of you on this list will welcome this initiative, and the 
benefits it will bring. You have been long time users and supporters of 
LiveCode. Today we're asking you, especially, to get behind us once again. We 
are aiming to bring LiveCode to hundreds of thousands of new users, removing 
the price barrier and making easy access programming available to everyone.

RunRev will be working in tandem with the community to guide and drive this 
project forward for many years to come. LiveCode will have a dual license 
system. Commercial licensing will still  be available allowing you to 
distribute closed source apps. Open Source LiveCode will be free under the GPL 
3 license. You will be able to contribute back to the engine. Development on 
LiveCode and the addition of all the special features each of you wants becomes 
an order of magnitude faster.

Visit our Kickstarter page to learn all about the project:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1755283828/open-source-edition-of-livecode

Please, if you want to see programming become the new literacy, get behind this 
project! Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your business associates, 
tell your distant acquaintances, shout it from the rooftops. Between us we can 
make this happen. We've got some great rewards for you too on Kickstarter, so 
everybody wins.

Make your pledge today and help us to take LiveCode Open Source!

Dear Heather,

This sound really, really interesting. Could you please explain how this would 
be free for everyone except professionals under GPL 3? AFAIK, open source means 
free (as in free speech) for everyone, including professionals. Are you using 
your own version of the GPL?

Dual license. See MySQL for an example of this. Free for everyone, but
needs commercial license for commercial use. No need for a seperate version
of the GPL, it's dual licensed.

PS: professionals are probably able to use it for free under GPL3 as well
as long as they release their source code under the GPL.

Hi Mark,

It is GPL3, we are not modifying the license. It will be free for a wide
variety of professional uses (e.g. in house software) but there are some
you will need to pay for, such as creating closed source software to sell
or accessing technical support. See the FAQ page link on the Kickstarter
page, we've gone into some more detail on there.

Kind regards,

Kevin

I'm sure Heather will answer but I'll have a go. Dual licensing models require 
you to distribute under the terms of the GPL or if you have a commercial 
license under those terms. You can still work professionally and distribute 
your code under the GPL however if you want to distribute under your own 
license and closed source then you will need a commercial license. 

One of the fantastic things is that now LiveCode Server will be free to use for 
99.9% of it's use.


 Are you using your own version of the GPL?

Then it wouldn't be the GPL would it???

AW: Open Source LiveCode Project

2013-01-29 Thread Tiemo Hollmann TB
Perhaps I didn't cared too much about open source and GPL3 in the past and I
don't understand it correct, but could somebody explain to me, what the
benefit for runrev is on this project, beside getting glory and honor?
How can runrev survive, if a great bunch of developers go to gpl and don't
pay anymore for their licences? Will there still be enough paying customers
of runrev, so that runrev can keep on developing LC?

Re: Open Source LiveCode Project

2013-01-29 Thread Björnke von Gierke
The idea is to get a lot more open source using customers compared to the user 
base right now. That should also increasing the commercial versions sold 
greatly. They'll probably change the store to include other, upscale versions 
of licenses. For example mySQL doesn't even have a price. You call them and 
they then ask anything between thousand and millions, direct payments or 
monthly payments, depending on the size of deployment, size of company etc.

One additional thing is that one can't sell open source versions on neither of 
the two app stores by Apple (ios and mac).

Finally, the open source version is of course completely free of support, and 
you can't use password protected stacks with it (that means a lot of the 
revVendor add-ons won't work with the open source version).

A little warning folks. You need to manually add the shipping if your outside 
the UK. Kickstarter doesn't do it for you. If you've already pledged you can go 
back in and adjust it.

Just a thought... @RunRev have you considered having pickup at the conference 
as an option?

Localisation based on ip address is notoriously hard and failure prone. There's 
no telling which IP will be recognized correctly, which will be miss-placed and 
which will be unrecogised. That is also why I hate auto-redirects based on 
locality so much (besides the fact that they create walled gardens on the 
internet), i.e. how google redirects me to google.ch all the time.

Yeah... I'm happy to leave the shipping on there and RunRev can have it if they 
stuff is ready when I'm there in May. If they want to ship it then I won't stop 
them. Actually kickstarter might not put your pledge against the right level if 
you skip the funding anyway, it wasn't automatic for me.
 
 I suspect/hope that they will go well over the target, and will have to come 
 up with other things that the money can be spent on.

I know there's a really long TODO list so let's hope so.

 Dear List Members,
 
 We  are hugely excited to be launching this project today:
 
 http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1755283828/open-source-edition-of-livecode
 
 Join our campaign to make a full version of LiveCode that is free and open 
 for everybody to use. We are doing this via a Kickstarter fundraiser, and we 
 need your help. If we are successful, between us we can change the face of 
 programming forever. 
 
 Open Source LiveCode means
 
 - Free access for teachers
 - Free access for students
 - Free access for hobbyists and enthusiasts
 - A headstart for professionals
 
 I know that many of you on this list will welcome this initiative, and the 
 benefits it will bring. You have been long time users and supporters of 
 LiveCode. Today we're asking you, especially, to get behind us once again. 
 We are aiming to bring LiveCode to hundreds of thousands of new users, 
 removing the price barrier and making easy access programming available to 
 everyone. 
 
 RunRev will be working in tandem with the community to guide and drive this 
 project forward for many years to come. LiveCode will have a dual license 
 system. Commercial licensing will still  be available allowing you to 
 distribute closed source apps. Open Source LiveCode will be free under the 
 GPL 3 license. You will be able to contribute back to the engine. 
 Development on LiveCode and the addition of all the special features each of 
 you wants becomes an order of magnitude faster.
 
 Visit our Kickstarter page to learn all about the project:
 
 http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1755283828/open-source-edition-of-livecode
 
 Please, if you want to see programming become the new literacy, get behind 
 this project! Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your business 
 associates, tell your distant acquaintances, shout it from the rooftops. 
 Between us we can make this happen. We've got some great rewards for you too 
 on Kickstarter, so everybody wins.
 
 Make your pledge today and help us to take LiveCode Open Source!

Hey folks,
For existing customers, what is the effective date for requiring that
an application be released open sourced versus commercial as usual?
Also, when will details be provided as to what the cost will be for a
commercial license?

For example, with a license for the 4.53 version, I have two
applications very close to being able to release as commercial
products... at what point do I need to be concerned with purchasing a
new commercial license or offering my source code?

Is a perpetual licenses from earlier version not exempt for the open
source model?

Regard,
David C.

Re: Open Source LiveCode Project

2013-01-29 Thread Shawn Blc
What about this (see the *bold* area)?  I have a commercial license.  From
what I remember when I purchased it I could create, edit applications and
distribute applications for as long as I wanted UNTIL I decided to upgrade.

See below.

The commercial version will be available as an annual subscription. A
single license
includes the ability for a single developer to create and build unlimited
applications
then distribute them royalty-free on all supported platforms. Unlike the
open source
version, it does not include access to the source code. It includes the
script password
security module which provides an additional level of protection for your
code. It removes
the requirement to redistribute the source code of your application when
you come to
redistribute it.* If your subscription expires any applications built will
continue to run*
*but you will not be able to create new closed source applications or
updates to existing **applications until you renew your commercial license.*

2013-01-29 Thread David C.
Thank you very much for the prompt reply, Kevin,
...however, I'm not quite sure that the FAQ addresses my concern, or
at least it still seems a bit unclear.

From the FAQ:
We will continue to honor your existing license terms until its
expiry date. Once it expires you will be invited to renew with one of
the new license types. You will also have the option to use the
community edition if it fulfills your specific needs.

The term invited to renew is far too vague to be comfortable in my
view, so from the standpoint of a perpetual license, please explain
at what point the license actually expires to the point that it can no
longer be used commercially?  The latest license I have is for version
4.53, so will I be able to continue using that commercially or not and
if so, for how long?

Dear David,

What you own is yours. If you have purchased (say) a LiveCode 4.5 license, 
under our existing perpetual license EULA, that EULA applies to that license. 
You will always be able to build closed source apps using LiveCode 4.5 (as long 
as you have hardware that will run it and its feature set meets your needs). 

If you want to build closed source apps using LiveCode 6.0, under the new dual 
licensing, you will need to purchase a new Commercial license and the new EULA 
will apply.

The term invited to renew means that no-one is forcing you to renew. It is an 
invitation.

 an application be released open sourced versus commercial as usual?
 Also, when will details be provided as to what the cost will be for a
 commercial license?

 For example, with a license for the 4.53 version, I have two
 applications very close to being able to release as commercial
 products... at what point do I need to be concerned with purchasing a
 new commercial license or offering my source code?

 Is a perpetual licenses from earlier version not exempt for the open
 source model?

 Regard,
 David C.

 From the FAQ:
 We will continue to honor your existing license terms until its

 the new license types. You will also have the option to use the
 community edition if it fulfills your specific needs.

 The term invited to renew is far too vague to be comfortable in my

 at what point the license actually expires to the point that it can no

The commercial version will be available as an annual subscription. A
single license
includes the ability for a single developer to create and build unlimited
applications
then distribute them royalty-free on all supported platforms. Unlike the
open source
version, it does not include access to the source code. It includes the
script password
security module which provides an additional level of protection for your

the requirement to redistribute the source code of your application when
you come to
redistribute it.* If your subscription expires any applications built will

Re: Open Source LiveCode Project

2013-01-29 Thread Heather Laine
Erm. The question as it stands does not compute Colin :). You can't have 5.5 
and not 5.5.1, you always get those minor releases with your major version.

However, if we rephrase it, suppose you had a perpetual 5.0 license, but then 
instead of updating it purchased a PAYG license, what would happen?

You will always be able to use your 5.0 edition of LiveCode. 

As long as you maintain your 5.5 PAYG payments, we will continue to honor that 
license type and provide you with updates. If you let that PAYG license lapse, 
you lose access to LiveCode, from 5.0 onwards. You will then need to purchase a 
new Commercial license to renew access. 

We will be discontinuing the PAYG license types once we go dual license, so no 
new purchases of this will be possible.

I hope this helps,

Regards,

Heather

To the RunRev team and community,
Unless something significant changes in the next few days, current
circumstances will not allow me to participate in the initial launch
of the open source LiveCode offering, but I'll at least be cheering
from the sideline. Once circumstances improve, it will be my pleasure
to participate in the new community effort. Best of luck with the new

It's my experience in life that almost nothing is linear. It will be important 
for all of us to get the word out (which I suppose we should have been doing 
all along). I have posted on my Facebook page and alerted people at my (former) 
place of employment.

Re: Open Source LiveCode Project

Hi All,

I learned about this breaking News from a post made by Richard.
Now I have a question for Kevin:

Kevin, Did you know if it will be possible to translate the open source version
of LiveCode to other languages?

If so, then I would recommend to expand the Kickstarter deadline from 1 month to
6 months to allow Universities and Educational Leaders around the
world to evaluate
the usefulness AND viability of porting LiveCode to their native language...
After all, this is the ultimate destiny of every open source project:
TO SPREAD IN EVERY LANGUAGE AROUND THE WORLD. :D

30 day campaigns are statistically more likely to succeed apparently. By a 
small fraction.

I imagine that project might hang on the back of the open language one. I'm 
imagining some kind of syntax loader...

What if each function, command, handler, reserved words, etc
is assigned an inmutable ID and a Label? (just like LiveCode controls)
In this way, you could call a built-in function using a label
(a single word in any language) and the engine execute the function
ID that is paired with such label... :-D
