From the beginning of this project, I wanted LogiSphere to contribute to my income.
Although I have received some donations,
the rate was not high enough to change my mind and keep it free.
I wanted to use a built in payment solution for LogiSphere from kagi.com.
I was told necessary components would be available by mid September.
They failed to deliver, multiple emails resulted in promises for a
testing release for mid November.
They have failed to deliver once more, so I will go ahead and implement
a web shop using PayPal Web Payments.
Changes planned for Version 1.0.0 are:
No License the software will shut down web server, video server and camera after 30 minutes.
It will not require a internet connection to run, but it will try to connect to logisphere.seiz.ch
whenever the web server is started or stopped. Requires internet connection to request a free license.
Free License It will not require a internet connection to run, but it will try to connect
to logisphere.seiz.ch whenever the web server is started or stopped.
If that connection fails, it will behave just like 'No license' and time out
after 30 minutes. If the connection succeeds, LogiSphere will run for 6 hours before
timing out.
Pro License the Pro License will be available for 20 Euros.
It will not require a connection to logisphere.seiz.ch unless you want your camera
to be listed. Will not time out even if there is no connection to the internet available.
LogiSphere 1.0.0 is planned to be released some time before year end,
Members will receive a download link as soon as it's available.
these terms can be discussed on this thread
