That's great that it works for you - and I don't think anyone is suggesting it's a bait and switch (I tried to be very careful with the post's wording). My point in this thread isn't that it's duplicitous - more that it's not free. I'm sure you guys had to work some licensing (which probably came under an agreement to enroll in another program). This isn't free - it's an engagement. If you left the program you would have to pay, I'm sure. And if it works for you - that's good stuff. I'd be very interested in reading about your choices and why you went this route.

You're absolutely right. I didn't intend to put words in your mouth. I've just had discussions before where that came up. Loopt was paying for licensing before we joined, and will be paying less after. I could be wrong, but as I understand it: * The dev tools are free, and continue to be so at the end. This is a huge deal by itself. * Some number of server licenses are perpetually free. It's possible for it to be completely free, though it needn't be if you aren't careful or choose to exceed the limits.
