Thanks! With respect tothe transtion I think everyones case is different. On my case, I am not an entrepeneur, I didn't aspire to create a company and it wasn't my intentions to make money out of IronCalc. I thought it was a missing piece in our current tech stack and turn out that many other people were interested. Firs I got a grant from the nlNet[1]. That wasn't enough for me to live of but paved the way to what was coming. Many different companies took an interest and I started havin emails from different folks about how to integrate IronCalc. Some of them were happy to spend some money on it, but I couldn't take it because of my day job. Goverments got interested (!) [2]. I realized there might be ways for me to have a modest living and push the vission I have for IronCalc for another two years. There are many things I could say on the topic, if you like to chat feel free to send me an email. I'm always happy to help
