[PD] Can you close source of Pd patches (for commercial development)?

[Jonathan Wilkes]

Don't ship the entire patch.
For example, suppose I'm selling a patch where the user can input single word 
"easing" styles like "ease-in-out", "rubber-band", "drunken-walk", etc., and 
it outputs lists of numbers that can be input into [vline~].  I'd do it this way:
[style-name(|[my-abstraction]|[ (|[vline~]
Which I can ship as
[style-name(|[netsend]
[netreceive]|[ (|[vline~]

I'm ignoring the interface for netsend/netreceive for the moment, but you 
get the idea.  The "business" logic stays on your machine, and remains a 
black box to your agent until you trust him/her.

What kind of (scientific) research have you conducted to conclude that 
"Max platform is more popular"?

What is your definition and criteria for "popularity"?
What is your sample group(s)?
What data have you collected and taken into account to support your 
statement?

Thanks.
