Hi everyone, I’ve just posted the details on the Cursive licencing and pricing model: https://cursiveclojure.com/archive/1564.html

That model is perfect as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for having the free version for personal hacking, it will make it way easier to get new people into Clojure. How far off are you from letting us give you money?

cfleming04:11:43

@shaun-mahood: Thanks Shaun! I’m hoping that will be very soon (like a couple of weeks).

@cfleming: I can live with both the current model and the future one with a subscription. I like the eap / stable delivery scheme too.

cfleming09:11:09

@stijn: Great, thanks! Yeah, a lot of people like the current model where they get changes as soon as possible, but some people will probably only want stable builds.

stijn09:11:53

and $199 for company license seems reasonable

stijn09:11:18

If I understand the IntelliJ model correctly, that would mean $100 yearly afterwards?

stijn09:11:28

(i've only ever used the community edition)

cfleming09:11:28

Yeah, that's what JetBrains used to charge for PyCharm before moving to subscription licensing. It’s difficult to compare since the market for Clojure is much smaller (they have 500k users of PyCharm), but on the other hand they also have a team of 12 working on it.

cfleming09:11:38

If you upgrade a year after purchasing, it’ll cost $100, right. I’ve changed their model slightly so upgrading gets a bit more expensive over time, so if you upgrade after two years it’ll cost $150

cfleming09:11:00

But you’ll get a year’s worth of features you didn’t have previously.

stijn09:11:11

makes sense

jaen15:11:13

Trying to start learning structural editing. Is there any Cursive deafult binding cheat sheet somewhere or do I have to make my own?

bhoggard17:11:14

I would love to know that too!

jaen20:11:51

Nice, thanks!
