@Paul Kevin am sorry but even when you make freeware you must have a target audience. show me one person who downloads and uses chysis draw more than once.

It is not money that drives a lot of initiatives,the money comes later.As a freeware, guys will get used to it and later it will become a household name.Think if the government can support the kenyan software, in all the new computers its dishing out for govt education, they install it.
In 8 yrs those children in primary/secondary school will be knowing chasis draw inside out...isnt that vision 2030 achieved and a powerful kenyan software firm established in kenya.
Its just time.

If he was selling his software, do you think it would have gotten him this kind of recognition? Not everything is about mega profits, this exposure will probably lead to lots more than cash he would have made selling it on the kenyan market

@Humphrey, some thots from me. When I wrote about the "Information Age and what we could do to develop things for the next 20 years or so..", FaceBook creator ( and as engineers ) have just managed to change the world for the better. Reading the various stories out there, this one says it all:  Wael Ghonim, the Google marketing executive who was detained for his role in organizing the Egyptian uprising on Facebook.....calling Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg a personal hero.
 
What's your take on this? :-)
 
Asante.

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
