January 8, 200620 yr Hi all, I was wondering what donationware is. It's not freeware and it's not payware, so how do I download it?Thanks,Jeff Jeff Commercial | Instrument | Multi-Engine Land AMD 5600X, RTX3070, 32MB RAM, 2TB SSD
January 8, 200620 yr To my understanding, Donationware is when you are provided a fully functional copy of a piece of software, and are encouraged to donate some money to the author. It can sometimes be a sign that a author is considering going payware, depending on the donationware proceeds. I believe that Pete Dowson had FSUIPC as donationware before going payware.
January 9, 200620 yr Something like that.I remember there was a Dc-3 that was donationware, and all funds used were to go to the DC3 museum, not to the author.http://www.answers.com/donationware Brent Lewis
January 9, 200620 yr It's payware except the fee goes towards some charity instead of the author (at least on paper, I don't think there's any way to make sure of that but I don't think too many people would abuse the title).
