Thanks for a great app. If the author desires financial support I prefer the app to be made a paid app rather than donate through paypal. Not everybody can or will donate so the donation method may leave some authors disappointed. Also a paid app has better chance of being upgraded and improved instead of being left to languish.

How come you're charging for open source software? Isn't this a breach of the license? Do you have the permission of the authors of Stellarium?

Please can someone else post this app on a public site - it's quite legit and well within the terms of the GPL. I just want to see the souce code.

@Elemental - I'm not trying to stop you from getting revenue for your work in the changes you've made to the code etc, but you're also profiting from someone else's hard work. I think a donation method would be a much better way of doing it.
Q: If I distribute GPL'd software for a fee, am I required to also make it available to the public without a charge?
A: No. However, if someone pays your fee and gets a copy, the GPL gives them the freedom to release it to the public, with or without a fee. For example, someone could pay your fee, and then put her copy on a web site for the general public.

Of course you have right to do that. But could you read my posts instead of blaming me, as I said you should see it as a donation for EmuMaster mainly (for Stellarium also but mainly for EmuMaster).

It's not a donation - it's very clearly a fee that your are enforcing and profiting from. A donation is, by it's definition, a voluntary contribution.
