Is it legal/fair to use a google-group for pay-only content? Is it fair from you to ask in a public list from now on?
All of us using a lot of information from public sources and use that bits to solve business/job related problems. Contributing an answer to a mailing list is a kind of repayment to the public but asking money for it is against the fair share.
- wagerlabs 18y agoThe Google group is temporary, until I build the journal software in Erlang and migrate to it. The content is pay-only but I balance it out by offering the source code from the journal to the public. The toolchain I'm building will be free as well. Check the repo link in the comment above. Also, a lot of people make money from Erlang on the public Erlang Questions mailing list and still ask questions. There's nothing unfair about it.
