About what would happen, I've already gotten this question two or three times. I will think about doing something soon and post here. I doubt it will involve open source, but it will involve somehow establishing the steps to not leave everyone high and dry in any event. Let me think about what the best way to do this is. Jay, thanks for the congratulatory message.

One thing I wonder about with this or any other product from a sole-proprietor is whether there are contingent provisions for product continuation in the event that you become unable to continue. Certainly I and many others want to see you continue to develop (especially ViEmu in my case), but I'm just concerned about what would happen if you couldn't do that anymore, whether due to (heaven forbid) illness or death. Would the source code go open-source, be auctioned off, or is there a potential successor in place? Tools of this value must persist!
