Matt:

The same 2 or 3 user's are working on the code now; as were working
on the code before the code became OPEN SOURCE.

Rob had the incentive to upgrade the code often to get upgrade fees.

The OPEN SOURCE is not producing any incentive to increase the updates.

The user's have other priorities and will work on it when they need
a feature for their own projects or have some spare hobby time.

I still would rather pay ROB for full time devotion to the upgrades.
