What nasty attack of bile? What medication?I am certain that David Pilling can sort out his own life. I was merely confirming what appears to be his growing belief that he would be better off (financially) working in a non-RISC OS area. I did ask him to come back and help us when he is able to. Surely that is being constructive?
If pointing out that there are many end-users within the RISC OS field who are completely out of touch with reality when it comes to software development costs is an "ad hominem" attack, then so be it.
