[12:34 PM] Adrian Speyer: he always complained about us not offering all features in the open source, but when someone asks him why the app is not open source: "It is not Open Source. A lot of money and uncountable hours have gone into it and the SaaS model fee will go into the continuous development of the iOS version and the development of an upcoming Android version.....Apps are not a one time thing..." Ahhh he's so precious :D
