That looks like a great piece of software! I have been bugged by the lack of maximize for a while now. This looks like it will fit the bill nicely.

Out of curiosity, what is a typical "donation" to the developer in this style of licensing?

He wrote a blog post (which I think was submitted here) that details the first week or two of sales. http://www.irradiatedsoftware.com/blog/files/a_week_of_sizeu...

He asks for $2.99 min so his paypal fees are payed, etc. I gave a bit more and got a personal thank you. It does have a demo mode as well.

The posts from the people that are releasing the sales data are extremely interesting to me. Thanks!

As an aside, does anyone know of an agregator of blog posts concerning sales data for ISV's?

Some developer blogs might show graphs so you can see the trend of their sales, usually with a line showing where they finally become a viable business, but few release hard numbers. I'm happy to share more hard numbers if anyone asks, since I feel this is very valuable data for anyone considering ISV or the "name your price" model.
