VF saidJust to clarify, this survey was already scheduled as part of the new licensing rollout, regardless of the GPL issue. Some questions surrounding GPL were added due to community feedback, though.
Thanks you Matt for making Envato to conduct these kind of surveys!(since the survey covers more than GPL)
Coincidence swallows the merits, but this always happens with long delays. Getting a title such as “largest in the industry” requires much swift response and care towards customers. As of now there is no developer license, there is no multiple purchase options and there is not even shopping cart to compensate this. Developer license just now promoted into “survey level” – not fair.

I really don’t get Wordpress point of view, so they want great plugins but that authors give for free? We need to make a living in the end of the day
Just to clarify: When they talk about “free”, they’re talking about freedom, not price.

so is this why the survey kicked me out when I’ve naively chose “I’m not a themeforest author” option?
Or maybe envato needs answer about licenses only from themeforest authors? Because, last time I’ve checked those licenses apply to all authors on all marketplaces.

Yes that’s absolutely true, but it’s also freedom to copy our work and resell or share it for free.

I believe I covered that when I wrote “freedom.”

That doesn’t necessarily mean that these changes will effect all marketplaces though.

Both ThemeForest and CodeCanyon has surveys as most of the questions related to developer’s interests.
