In the past "freebie" versions did not save plugin-states, which has lead a few users to loose plugin-settings when testing a new gratis version. So the goal was to find a new restriction that does not modify session-state and is an incentive for *most* users to support ardour development financially. If you can offer a better solution and provide data or experience to confirm that it works to raise income, please don't hesitate to enlighten us. It'd be sad if ardour development would grind to a halt because the lead-developer can't eat. some further reading: https://community.ardour.org/node/8288 > Amazing ! so clever to spend time on that, than to add a payment > system) Adding this 10 (+ 5 + 2.5 + ..) minute countdown took about 3 mins of coding. Compare that to whipping up a payment system incl VAT + international transfers, subscriptions etc etc.. Heck, even paypal barely manages to do that after 15 years. > aptitude -R install libraptor2-dev [..] Ardour4 is already available in debian. `sudo apt-get build-dep ardour4` is a lot easier if you want to build your own. 2c, robin _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
