    Or everyone could do the obvious thing and donate to me to open source it.  Why do you find my work so worthwhile to crack, yet you won't help the community by donating to open source it?  You do realize that you can crack it all you want, but without the source code you'll get stuck with an outdated client very fast.  I'm on the verge of releasing an OpenCL enabled build as well.  Do you really want to be the person who changed my mind about releasing it and providing enhancements to the CUDA version?  I'm sure the community will let you know how they feel about this.

    Yes, the community prefers to work with people that have the open source mindset unless there's no expertise in it, or the closed source is amazingly better that all others. But hey, that's just me Smiley

    Your code may be great, and your heart in the right place when you say "convince me to open source", but the paragraph you just wrote spells out "either you pay me or I'm not releasing the hostages". The pun regarding ransomware is well intended, but in a satirical and well intentioned manner! I told you, I understand perfectly what you are trying to achieve, we are all going for the same thing. It's the route you chose that I'm not comfortable with.
