Win32Lib has always been open source, and although Derek has been the main person working on the lib for quite sometime, there have been countless people who have contributed to the library, so you can't say it is "his" library. > If you're competing for real dollars out there > that's not usually a good thing Win32Lib is not a "product", nor is it for sale, so there isn't really any competetion. > There's also the appreciation end of it...after all the work you > put in to a large library if people dont express some sort of > appreciation at some point you tend to start to keep things to > yourself, and a lib like that is a LOT of work with little return. > People have donated micro economy dollars and time to Win32Lib, so if that is not appreciation I do not know what is. The truth is Derek doesn't get paid to work on Win32Lib, and he can walk away from the project anytime he pleases. But I hope he continues working on the lib and continue sharing it with the rest of the community. ----If you continue to do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten.----
