Tueschen's comments seem to ignore that current Toga versions are completely compliant to the Gnu Public License conditions (IOW, open source). Maybe he doesn't understand what open source is about. Taking open source code and improving it is exactly what the o.s. idea goes for. The "problem" is that it has worked a bit too good here, obviously more than the original programmer could stand. So he closed the source. So who should be our hero, the one who opened but soon closed the source after collecting some additional ideas from others, or the one who did exactly what the open source idea is about and provides a strong engine for free? Make your choice... (Make use of the 1% which distinguishes you from a chimp! :-)) ) Yours truly Paul J. Sacral
