I leave all because:
40tude Dialog -> is freeware in my opinion
Desktop Architect -> don't know
ePrompter -> don't know
KaZaA Lite -> if there are legal issues, I wait for a sentence.
Trillian -> don't know


Why two threads, one the "not" of the other?

Kind regards,

Sorry to post discussion in a voting thread, but it looks as though
there is considerable confusion about how the acceptable/unacceptable
votes should be cast. For example, people are voting programs
acceptable even while saying they don't know the programs or have no
opinions on their acceptablity.

If you believe a program is acceptable as Pricelessware, *do* leave
it on your ballot in the "acceptable" thread, and if you cast a
ballot in the "unacceptable" thread, do *not* leave it on your ballot
there.

If you believe a program is unacceptable as Pricelessware, *do* leave
it on your ballot in the "unacceptable" thread, and if you cast a
ballot in the "acceptable" thread, do *not* leave it on your ballot
there.

If you have do not know a program or have no opinion on whether or
not it is acceptable as Pricelessware, do not include it on your
ballot in either thread.

No, because as it's stated, it would mean that a program you don't know is
in one thread acceptable and in the other thread inacceptable.

Thanks Q,

As always a very lucid explanation.

Having two ballots was clearly a mistake. I'm going to post an alternate
*single* ballot that I hope will be less confusing.

No. Leaving an app off the "acceptable" ballot does not mean you find
it unacceptable, or vice versa.

But please see Susan's alternative thread for this voting,
