REGISTRATION AND SHAREWARE FEE
Up till version 6.1 Downsort was a Freeware product. But it is not a
neglectable task to keep Downsort up to standards, migrating to new
versions of Maximus and keeping up with the stream of requests for new
features. From version 6.2 on I ask a small tangible compensation to
allow me to continue working on Downsort.
I hate registration-reminders, annoying beeps, restrictions in features
(cripple-ware), and other tricks to force people to register. So
Downsort is uncrippled, full featured, and that will remain so. I may
eventually decide to quit further work on Downsort if the registration
response appears to be considerably below actual use.
I don't like the unreasonably high fees that banks charge for
international money transfers or cheques to be made payable, and have
no agreement with a credit card company. To keep the shareware fee to
a reasonable minimum, I ask you to send a "thank you for Downsort"
letter with carefully hidden 15 US dollars in banknotes (no cheques!!).
You will be obliged to perform this incredibly pleasant task only once,
and what is 15 dollars on a lifetime? You may grasp the chance to tell
me your strictly private opinion about Downsort or to report your
requirements or remarks!
Please address your letter to:
R. Hamerling
Hogelandseweg 67
4132 CV Vianen
The Netherlands
The equivalent of 15 US Dollars in banknotes of another currency is
welcome too, but please only in a currency of one of the G7 countries!
For those of you with a Dutch bank account it may be more convenient to
pay the fee (25 Guilders) into my Postbank account 2087285. You will
receive a personal 'key' which will change the signature of Downsort
slightly to show that you are a registered user.
If you are running Downsort on your Bulletin Board as service to your
users, have it available for download and/or file-request, and you
appreciate to be mentioned, I'll be glad to add your name to the
reference list.
