I think it's less about generating a certificate and more about managing and serving push notifications which assumedly takes resources to serve and manage. Not to mention the cost of setting up the servers in the first place. They have to make money somewhere, right? I mean you can't expect this much work for a pure passion project can you? Honestly I'm more concerned that it's so damn cheap. It's hard for me to believe that a $1 fee on software that only works with devices >6 years old is much of an economic incentive for a project of this scope. It becomes a lot easier to believe when you look at their sourceforge download stats and realize that they've been at this for years now and they have some pretty amazing numbers on their side: http://sourceforge.net/projects/whited00r/files/stats/timeline?dates=2012-09-01+to+2014-09-16 http://sourceforge.net/projects/whited00r/files/stats/timeli... We all know that Apple is obviously under-serving older generations of devices in the interest of getting people to buy the new one. This project appears to be proof that there is a sizable segment of the market that still cares about their 6+ year old Apple devices.
