There are nonprofits and nonprofits, though, and we reserve the right as a private company to determine who we give copies to.

Work Exchange - Commercial & Resalable Licenses

We have an interesting and flexible policy of exchanging commercial Webglimpse licenses for bits of work on the project. More extensive development work can even be exchanged for a serialized set of resalable commercial licenses. Here are some examples of work that can be exchanged for one commercial license (value $200-$500):

Translation of 5 short pages (really more like paragraphs) into any non-English language. Even if we already have some pages in your language of choice, updates and further documentation would still be valuable and we would probably still be interested in an exchange.
Documentation of a particular use or configuration. Simply document, step by step, your own use of Glimpse or Webglimpse so that others could create a similar configuration on their own site.
Bugfixes, new features. Of course, we welcome fixes and improvements to the code and generally will provide a complimentary copy to any contributing developer.
