Sadly, Cedric Menard, the developer of the Mac iTunes-extender, Sofa, died recently
If his software had been open-source, it could have carried on in perpetuity. As it is, my most-loved iTunes add-on will now eventually have to be replaced. The site is already down, for "legal reasons," says his site's host, which I fully understand. It's especially sad, because whenever I used Sofa, I thought about Cedric, with whom I'd emailed. Few software developers think about this horizon when they decide how to license their work, but I think it's worth pondering.
