Thanks X4, I put over a year of hard work and a lot of my own money into Tree.io. I'm happy that it's used around the world by companies and universities even though I don't get any money from it.

How about adding a viable business model that brings you some constant money in? I mean you are a really good startup, why don't you ask for VC funding or Enterprise Sponsors?

Maybe a solid and good marketed Kickstarter Campaign that will realize something that people would love to have (I don't know what that is though).

Or adding an integrated Marketplace like http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/ that seamlessly integrates into everyones Tree.io so that devs can sell their addons to end-users directly within their own install + you get 11% for every sold license. End-users can point, click and pay.

Thanks X4 I like the marketplace idea a lot.
