Re: [Wesnoth-dev] Selling Wesnoth?

Story time - a story a number of you probably know.
There is a site out there, called OpenOSX.com.

This site has a very bad reputation - simply because they package open-source programs and sell them to people on cds. At one point in time, when I was looking for a mac os X copy of the Gimp, and before I was indoctrinated into things unix, I had been under the impression that buying it from them was the only way to get it, which really irritated me, since the program was supposed to be free.

On the other hand, a lot of legitimate companies like Red Hat/SuSE make a business out of selling Open Source software, and I'm not aware of people hating on them.

I'm not in this wesnoth thing for money - I'm in it for something that money can't buy, which is a professional skillset. So I don't really care either way, and besides the point it's not my decision to make.


Cheers,
- Richard
