PartyMine source code and full rights for sale.

Prod1gy · #1 08-04-2005, 01:34 PM

I am contemplating the selling of PartyMine. I just don't think down the road I will have the time and effort to develop and sell the product and do it justice.

Therefore I am taking offers from any developers out there or from anyone actually that wants to buy the full rights to all the source code (basically I will sell everything todate that I have worked on).

I had an offer several months ago for $3000 that I turned down at the time. If that gives a decent starting point.

Private message me any serious offers and we can talk more.

Thanks.

What does this mean for the future of PartyMine? When my beta expires, is that it until someone purchase this from you?

seems that way, to bad, i thought it would be easy to keep updated, maybe the author feels party will ban the software also in the future?

I for one would be pretty upset if he didn't release an unlimited version of at least what exists given that I just donated. Would be kind of a chop move IMHO.

No thats not it at all. If that was the case I would of sold it when I was offered the money two months ago.

I just am very busy with my job and other stuff, that I don't have the time to put out releases in a timely manner that have any significant content.

I already have people requesting more and more features all the time.

I just feel someone else that does have time could make it bigger, better and make alot more money than I ever could with it.

For people that donated, I will work something out to where you will have an unlimited version.

What method of donation should I use to insure getting an unlimited version?

there may be a 2+2er who is willing to improve it himself/herself but who doesn't want to shell out the $$ -- if you don't get any takers, why don't you license the source code to someone else who has more time and possibly even a royalty arrangement -- I'd do it if I knew Java. I would suspect that that may be more lucrative than selling the code outright. I'd be happy to work up a simple license/royalty agreement if you'd like (I do THAT for a living [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]).

why nto just sell it as is?

I thought about that, and if no decent offers come in, I will probably try to go that route.

Then slowly overtime add features.
