Who's getting the money when people purchase weather panel.

Martian has been MIA for 2 years (in February). Weather panel continues to be purchased by people who don't know this. Where is that money going?

From what I understand if the money is Paypaled (is that a word now?) then Martian gets it - if the program is bought from either Handango or Pocketgear the money never gets to Martian. I'll repeat what I've said before - this is a very cheap, very, very good program. We should support the developer even if we don't know where the hell he is. I've had Weather Panel for over 3 years and through two major upgrades (including one after Martian went missing) and it's been an awesome deal for less than $15. - sheureka

i heard that the money went into paypal and the website and domain was paid out of paypal. if it was set up automatic with drawl it could last forever. wow that could be cool.

Well, there's no way of knowing that. The domain is registered through a proxy - there's no way of knowing who owns it or how it's paid for. I researched it a little...
