Damn liars. Microsoft is always best than this!
Unfortunately CATS is another “free software” that is no longer.
There are too many companies developing Free Software just as a marketing strategy until the project is well know and, afterwards, turn it a cripled version and/or hosted only version.
It is sad that this persons do not understand what is Free and Open Source Software.
We have seen this before with Sugar CRM and ActiveCollab and countless others. People who use the “Open Source” tagline but are not really open source.
For that I really prefer a closed source developer company. At least those do not make a profitable marketing campaign based on a lie.
As someone else said…
This is a perfect example of what’s going wrong in Open Source today! If you need to sell more professional versions, then go get some real sales people and start going out their and selling it! Advertise to the Staffing Industry! When you advertise to the open source industry, you are targeting people who are looking for a complete open source application! Not a partial one! Do you get pushed into purchasing a professional version of Fedora? Or Ubuntu? Then why would you with CATS?
If you need it just get the last non-cripled version here. Those, rest assured, use a sort of F/OSS license.
