   Will the downloaded version always be the same as the hosted version? Will the hosted version receive faster updates than the downloadable version? Also, I know it is free now, but will the hosted version eventually cost money?

   Hi Marcos,

   Thanks for the comment. Answers below:

   - Openads will always be GPL, and a download version will always be available. The hosted version is a simpler way for publishers to get up and running without the hassle of installing, configuring, maintaining, etc.

   - The hosted version of Openads is free (and of course the downloadable version). In the future, we may offer commercial services to users of either version of openads (downloadable or hosted) if they want additional support.

   - We will try to release new features to both the downloadable and hosted versions at the same time.

   Like James mentioned above, this is a major step that we are undertaking, and we are very excited about future prospects for Openads. I know that our team has been very focused on this project, and they have been doing a tremendous job so far.

   We look forward to offering this huge new offering to more and more people as our beta rollout progresses.

   Scott
