That’s wonderful that you feel the same way as Dr. Andus, and I wish Eduardo the best, but the proof is in the follow-through. “Labor of love” or not, his paying customers have complained on the forum about his “disappearances” and lack of replies to tech support questions, and past behavior is an important consideration for whether or not to invest one’s time and money in software. I guess we’ll see how much follow-through is behind his very good intentions.
