Shareware is making a comeback?



It's worse than that, expectation are different and actually doing disservice to the whole open source ethos. I recently heard a couple of regular users talking and equating Free Software//Open Source with Freeware, I didn't bother correcting them because from their perspective the difference is meaningless. Only us geeks care enough, but not enough to go and fork it.
