Should i start selling my open source application?

Asked by gciochina (107points) September 1st, 2008

Hey there! I’m in a really bad situation (not only financially speaking)... my dad died couple of months ago, my brother is a student, and with my current income i can’t cover all the bills…

Anyways, so I’ve been maintaining this open source application (PDF reader for smart phones) for quite some time and now i was thinking i should start asking money for it…

People always say “that’s a good application” and stuff and I DID set up a donation service… but no one ever gives anything… so i don’t know what to do… i always loved open source / free / software… but…. i don’t know… what would you do?

PS: sorry if this will upset some of you ppl, i’m just asking for advice…
