Subscription renewal - the new terms

[Alex Tweedly]

Hi Bob,

Curry is talking about the costs/T&Cs for Create. I confess I barely 
paid attention to that when it was discussed (on the uselist maybe 
around the summer of 2024???), because I decided it didn't affect me 
(*).  I do remember there was a lot of concern that the pricing models 
looked cumbersome, or had lots of overhead, or .... or just weren't easy 
to understand or allow for.

There is a summary at livecode.com/pricing - it talks about per-seat 
costs (for both developers and users) - which would appear to apply to 
in-house tools, including those developed by single-person developers 
contracted to an organisation)  - or different terms for apps for sale.

(*) as a hobbyist who will never sell an app, and only do (at most) very 
limited distribution as a free app for charity or other local 
organisations  - it just didn't look like I would be affected, so I 
didn't follow the discussion properly.

But the bottom line is (as usual) Livecode is a small flexible company 
that wants you to succeed - so contact them for fuller, custom, 
discussion if the standard pricing model seems unworkable.

Alex.
