And here we have ready product not sth what may appear in the future. If ready to use product cannot be sold in enough number of copies then for sure we have no chance to collect enough money for sth what does not exist yet. Instead starting such foundation may be the end of Harbour. It will not allow to collect enough money to pay professional documentation writer but it may be the source of never ending discussion when the documentation will have been finished addressed to me and some other core developers. I'm not slave of Harbour users and for sure I will not tolerate such messages for long time. This is my last massage in this thread. I strongly suggest to invest resources necessary to create such long messages about "how to create harbour documentation" in creating some real documentation. It will be really productive. best regards, Przemek _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list (attachment size limit: 40KB) Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
