Danijel,

You seem to have a licensing crisis every thee to six months, whether
you need it or not. If you are not making a living doing this under the
current licenses, I guess I can't blame you for looking for change.

It's not about licensing. RTC is getting too big for me to continue working on everything by myself (it is now about 3 relatively complex component sets: RTC SDK, RTC Portal VCL and RTC WAF) and I don't have enough funds to pay other developers to do serious work, and was unable to find developers interested in doing serious work for a share of the profits (which would currently be relatively small, since only RTC Poral VCL is generating revenue). So, instead of trying to do everything by myself and dragging things along in slow motion, I've decided to find a larger company with enough resources and available man-power to integrate the RealThinClient components into their portfolio. Until I find a suitable owner, I will continue working on RealThinClient components as before, so there is no change for current customers, but I hope there will be a positive change soon.

Regards,
Danijel
