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.

Win32Lib is not a "product", nor is it for sale, so there isn't really any
competetion.

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.
