Pricing

[poleguy]

The google play pricing came up on this issue:
giuspen/cherrytree#328

Please continue the discussion here, not there.

I have updated the app description to clarify why the price is set at the upper limit of what google allows: it is to avoid anyone installing what is a stale version of the alpha quality code. The apk is freely available from a link on the github page. Please download it there, and let me know your feedback.

I'm sorry @giuspen to cause you any grief. My code is also free, and if/when you decide to do an 'official cherrytree' android app, you may of-course use whatever you find valuable.

I personally don't think charging money for open source work is necessarily something to avoid, but I certainly can respect your position of never asking for money. I wouldn't want anyone to think that I am somehow representing you or the official cherrytree. Please let me know if I can fix anything else with respect to cherrybud: I definitely don't want to cause any more friction.

I don't want to take down the play store app entirely, as I think it might give some visibility to cherrytree, to the cherrybud app and help with finding users/testers.

@doskey321 does this make sense? Have you been able to download the apk? I'd love to hear your feedback. Please, send me an email or add an issue on github.

@poleguy that's fine and I'm not against you charging for your open source work, I just don't want users to believe that I'm behind it while I'm not. As long as you make that clear you have my blessing.
