The Site With the Lamp

August 7, 2004

As the name implies Rad User Manager is a login and user management systems for websites. This product was developed from the PHP scripts that power the Rad Inks members area

Just yesterday we decided to change to license model for Rad User - in other words the product is now open source and free. Since it's covered under the Mozilla Public License you can even integrate it with commercial products - as long as full credit is given. That usually means you have to mention in your readme file or release notes that the product makes use of Rad User Manager.

Now you may ask isn't all this unfair on the people who paid for the license? well we had a survey running for quite sometime on our site and people who took part in it were entitled to download the User Manager free of charge - as a result we ended up not selling any licenses at all.
