Hello,

i think so, too.
But i have an "idea":
- Netcraft´s PHP Usage Stats say: 7,xxx,xxx Domains, 1,xxx,xxx IP Addresses
fine, let´s say, 70% of the more than 7 million domains are
"homepages" and the rest are targeted more towards "commerical" sites or
something like that.
Anyway - why doesn´t Nick sell his Accellerator for $1 (ONE single
Dollar) ?
Nick, i guess nearly _anyone_ will pay you ONE DOLLAR for your work.
No Matter if he/she "is commercial" or not.
Let´s say, you keep up this strange registration thing but add the
"$1" to it. This would make more sense at all and once you reached the
state of an multi-millionaire, you transform your project into an open
source project and put it onto sourceforge or whereever you like.
During the time, you charge the dollar for PHPA, you add a nice statistic
module wich generates beautified X-HTML compilant output.
This module is of course suddenly finished, once you reached 7 million dollar
man
state (or whichever you want to archive) and then, you close business
and the open source community finds everything, the accelerator and the
statistic
tool, on a nice sourceforge page.
So, the PHP Guys can add PHPA to PEAR or as standard accelerator to the
distribution
or whatever else.
Micropayment.
Best wishes,
Holger
