Good resume Lawrence! These are the original questions, which explains the subject title 1. - Should I charge to this particular Client the "learning hours"? 2. - Should I release the code to the customer when she/he asks for it? 3. - Should I share (the money) with Piclist if I sale the final project? Thanks to Mauricio it becomes on how to quote, but the third question nobody answers it or it was eluded. Due to my lack on English grammar Wouter thought I was talking about "share" the code once it becomes private property. Nice, but that wasn't in my head. What I was asking was "if I sale a project in which i.e. Scott (and others) help me with the fantastic CRC16, should I have to share with him the profit? or, Shouldn't I have to support the list? Since this is a *moral* question, and moral among agnostics becomes a private thing (?) I understand majority chooses to avoid it... But the fact is "The Piclist" enters in the title subject to make "PicList-support-thing" real and explicit.
