Does anyone wonder if Kristoffer or Johan have family to support? A mortgage? Taxes are high in Sweden, very high, as far as I've heard. They may not be in it for the money, but I'm sure the money is welcome, and they've earned it.

There are ways around it, anyhow.

Honey,
I started all of this with the predication that I *want* the developers to continue to profit. I *fully* support them making as much money as they can.

I predicated all of this by saying - if they did not wish to do any further work; if they had no further interest ing the product.

Regarding Edi's comments:
Novel released dp into the public domain while retaining the Copyright to DataPerfect.

Allowing others to add *onto* your contributions ensures that your creation lives on. And various schemes would allow the authors to retain creative control.

But if anyone took this as stepping on the toes of the authors then I profoundly apologize. Quite the opposite.

I would definitely love to see the continue and expand.
