I would only cinsider doing it, if it happened that way, cahrge only for my
stuff and not for the freeware, which is freeware.

But the only consideration would then be if one of the programmers wanted a
share of the pie. If that happened I would not bother doing it, cause I would
not have to want to bother with royalties and the such.

It just depends on whether they think that I am making money from their programs
or just my own.
