Title: Software Sell
Post by: Chandra K on October 15, 2010, 09:09:27 AM

Recently I have developed an educational software in VB.
Now I want to distribute it.
Please tell me how can I approach the user and distribute my project to them.

I have a bad feeling you're going a proprietary software route here with this, since you're using VB.  ;D However, I recommend that you find a way to package the box nicely, and become a seller on Amazon.com.

If you want to make it open source,  8) but make it LGPL so people don't mess with it as easy, you can publish it a lot of places, including SourceForge, Launchpad, BerilOS, or other places that I can't name right off hand.

Hope all this helps. :)

Is it just me, or does this sound a bit like homework?
