Brave move @Erel, you obviously have a great plan, I shall make my usual annual contributions to both B4A/B4J and license payment for B4i

@Erel To avoid confusion for anyone looking, you may want to remove this QA from the B4A page:

Q: What is the difference between the Standard version and the Enterprise version?
A: The Standard version includes two months of free upgrades. The Enterprise version includes two years of free upgrades.

Thank you so much.
Will it be free forever from now on?

Mahares · Feb 7, 2020

@Erel: You may want to add another button in the B4A page that says: Other to the below buttons, in order not to impose a fixed amount. Some may want to contribute less than 10, but others may want to be generous by contributing over 100
Consider supporting B4A by contributing to its development: $10 $20 $40 $100 Other

Perfect news...
Thank you Erel.
Let's hope that all of us will spread more of our work and ideas

I think-suppose there is a reason for that choice (technical reason), otherwise there would always have been only one button, for a free contribution.

(BTW, I donated just a couple of months ago, an intermediate amount, not one of those proposals and... I have already forgotten how! ? )
P.S. I remembered: using email to pay for license renewal. So it would be enough to provide that.

What does this mean in practice? Another button less?

I should read "all" again; I don't know what source will be available. For example, will we have the possibility to create plugins? (I've already searched how to do it, just to waste my time even more ? )

no.

B4A Framework = internal Libraries. These become openSource.

Here I leave a picture of my students at SENA (www.sena.edu.co) of Colombia learning B4A.

TerraD · Feb 7, 2020

Thank you for this nice move! I honor this decision by a donation. I always wanted to write some code for Android but was always detained by the two month period for the cheaper subscription... For hobbyist programming that always deterred me!

There is a dead link on the 'B4A – The simple way...' page (https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html): 'Download the required resources. ' leads to a '403 Forbidden'.
