Hi All,
It's going to take more time to get a pace free version of PARIS 3.0 that I can release.
My fallback plan for this weekend had been to release the standard PACE version of PARIS 3.0 if I couldn't get permission from ID to release a PACE free version.
What I discovered today is that the PACE version of PARIS 3.0 will not run at all in Windows 7 64, even with the latest PACE drivers installed. And, today I learned that approval for a PACE free version of PARIS 3.0 is going to take more time.
Should I release the driver with a PACE PARIS 3.0 that will not run? PARIS version 2 will still work.
Or, should I wait until everything is in place?
I'm feeling pretty low about this, but there is nothing I can do. Thanks to the crappy Conservative government in Canada, I could be up for a $1,000,000 fine and 5 years in jail if I break the lock and it is deemed to be for commercial purposes.
Even if it wasn't deemed commercial, it would destroy my relationship with ID, and I value that highly.
So, I just can't do it.
Having said that, in Canada at least, an individual breaking a digital lock is only on the hook for the damages that a company can show. And, since PARIS 3.0 is not for sale, those would be zero.
Let me know what you think I should do.
Mike
