Kurt,

From my perspective:
I don't see a reason to assist in the development or promotion of a commercial
product without getting paid.

IMO you should spend your energy where it will be truly valued (by the author!)
and where you will get proper credit for the work you have done.

I believe there are numerous amateurs that would love your help, I know of at
least one.

just my 0.02
