I have already prepared something for the case where I go out of business.

When this happens (in 50 years approximately), I will release a version of the
program that will not be locked at all.

So don't worry, there will be no problem.

One final note: if I die tomorrow no problem because there is somebody else
working with me here. She will simply publish the key generator program and the
problem will be solved.
