EvoGUI is now free!

Yes, you can use it in any way you like, commercial products included, and you don't need to share any modifications you make etc.

I have not changed the text of the licence on the download site and within the download itself, but as of today you can feel free to disregard it. I surely won't change my mind again, so you don't need to worry. I will change it officially to GPL or something similiar in the near future - if anyone really cares about the official texts more than my word.

I have also made several improvements since the last public release, but I will release the new version only once I have added a few more features. It will be in 3-6 months from now, depending on how i order my working schedule as I am working on more important parts of my project right now. Once that is released, I will also create the SVN.

As far as support goes, you can ask questions and I will usually answer them if/when I get the time. So far most questions about functionality have been addressed and I've added/changed some features as a result.

One user also ported it to C# so if anyone needs this port, let me know and I will upload it.

Cheers

Thanks

[Lenn]

Uh yea ... you're welcome Sinisa. Any time. Any time at all.

Thanks Lenn! I am interested in C# port it you have it lying around

[Lenn]

I'm not so sure I should post it, because then people might start improving the two different versions in different directions. What do you think?

Some other reasons for not posting it is: 1-When I post the future updates they will all be in VB so you may adopt it just as well and 2-It really isn't that much of a hassle to implement it into a C# project, you only need to take care of the optional parameters and voila.

yea, don't convert it to C#, every decent .NET programmer can convert it to C# him/herself

GPL would make it unusable by anyone looking to make a closed source application. 

I vote for BSD, MIT, ZLIB or similar license. 

[Lenn]

Okay, which ever licence lets you do anything you want with it is good for me. I'll have to read up on those licence types, but until I do - it's totally free, like free beer or free love, or whatever

thats cool on no C# thing.  i was just hoping to mirror the file if you wanted to share.  I totally understand supporting one codebase
