Re:Modification available: crosslinking between it - 2007/06/22 09:41
we are finishing our component at the moment and I would suggest that I'll send you a copy so you can see that it is no extension of your script (as it was planned in the beginning) but a stand-alone component, if you are alright with that.
feel free to delete this topic but I would have been happy if someone would have provided such a component like ours as I was searching for a crosslinking-function. As you certainly remember I was asking if you are going to improve the glossary in the near future and you told me, that you don't have the time to do so. So I started to look for a solution myself and the only way for me was to pay a programmer to develop something for me. From that point my idea has grown to a completely independent component which you can use togheter with a lot of other content-relevant components out there.
I guess that if someone would ask for a crosslinking feature here in the near future, it may be that some user would recommend our commercial solution anyway, but thats only speculative of course. 
There are a lot of great commercial Joomla components out there and it is always the decision of the developers if they provide them under GPL - and this may also have a commercial background because often they provide extra commercial services and adjustments and use their OpenSource-Project to get the needed awareness. Often Open Source is part of a marketing strategy, I think that you also got some valuable customers because your free glossary script became that popular...
Sorry for the long text
