@twaelti: The problem is not so much that the author wants to get paid, its that he released it under GPL, had people work on it under that license(so its not entirely his code anymore), and then wants to get paid for it by changing the license. He's free to take his own code, change the licence and do what he wants with it... But he'd have to redo the work of the other devs, or get them to agree to the change(which is what he's trying and failing to do) Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't he just sell it on the OVI store -as- gpl? The only issue is that someone who bought it could turn around and give it away for free... But he'd still be able to make something - It would end up being an "enforced donation" type situation. And yes, there would be some people who would give it away for free... But that happens anyway, no matter the license.
