Kevin's proposal.

We would all rather pay no tax. I’m unsure how the VAT works but with
Australia’s GST you can claim the full amount back on business
expenses. How exactly did you expect Kevin to know what tax rules
apply to you until you had entered your details at the point of sale?

You are certainly right about the VAT. But that was only a side issue
and not the main point of my post. The important part was this:
Due to my kickstarter contribution I have got a commercial licence
that is valid up to August 2016. Legally that would mean IMHO that I
am entitled to develop and distribute software under the conditions of
this license, particularly
- to use any commercial-like Livecode version released until August
2016 *forever* and without any restrictions to the possible revenue
from sales and not subject to the new subscription scheme, in case I
use the latest available Livecode version of August 2016.
Regrettably the license rules have changed now and the changes - in my
limited perspective - were not fully transparent to me. I would think
that of the two present "near-commercial" licenses only the "business"
version would be fully equivalent to the conditions of my own present
licence valid up to August 2016.
Best regards,
Wilhelm Sanke
