Cumulus Support

I think I've been pretty tolerant so far in not saying anything. I shall probably become somewhat less tolerant if this forum starts being used for support for that product.

Producing an original work to display Cumulus data, commercial or otherwise, is absolutely fine, of course, and doesn't require any consultation with me. And it helps to make Cumulus more popular. But I would have hoped that before someone started copying the Cumulus main screen and selling it, using the Cumulus name, they would have at least checked with me first. Perhaps the belief is that because Cumulus is free, they can do whatever they want. I disagree, and think that it is at the very least impolite; perhaps that's just me.
