I realize that this took a huge amount of time, so asking for an open source version of this might be asking a bit much. But, I would absolutely be willing to pay for a SaaS product, or a licensing fee for the code. It's absolutely beautiful, and as someone who does this in a gross spreadsheet, moving to something like this would be unbelievable.

Considering most people are casual observers 3 comments about paying for this is a positive signal. vpj should just throw up a landing page asking for money and start building. :)

Yes, package this up for me in a SaaS, teach me the lifestyle, and then please take my money.

I would also love to pay for this. However I would not want a typical SAAS product. I don't want my data on your servers. Give me something I can install myself really easily. There are products out their which do the SAAS things and ones which I can install locally (if I setup a server, database, configure it all etc.etc.). Give me something really simple and something I can secure myself locally and you have lots of my money. I don't have much, but I will give you lots of it :)

It's a personal dashboard start up in the making ;)

That was my first thought as well. If the author's not currently working on such a product, they should absolutely get on it.

What's this to mean? Linux and gcc took much more time from many more developers. Licensing isn't a function of your investment into the project, it's a function of how the project will best benefit the world.
