Hi everyone, With Mathematica 11.3, if I convert a document to CDF Pro (Enterprise version), I can't convert it back again to NB. Well, I can, but when I open it on Mathematica (and not on the player), it remains non editable as if I was on the player. The same doesn't happens with the free CDF option. I don't recall this being like that before... and quite dangerous, as I

Also, the only way I have to convert a notebook into a CDF pro version (besides the programatical way), is File->CDF preview->Export CDF, while to export without being pro, just Save As CDF. Seems an odd procedure... Am I missing something?

(quite dangerous, because we seem to lose the access to the document, which is not complete right, because we can always convert it to other stuff, eventually access to it programatically, etc.)

Perhaps we should help J.M. in a more organized manner than random transfers: tpfto.wordpress.com

@Kuba That sounds like a really good idea. What to do and where to organize this?

@gwr some kind of crowd founding, but I have no experience, not a problem these days I guess. But maybe someone can already provide feedback.

@Kuba Something like this: fundly.com ?

yes

@gwr not sure how that would work with the fact he's in Philippines afaic

fundly.com/how-do-i-get-my-money that statement may not suffice with regard to the Philippines indeed.

@gwr gogetfunding.com/faq

or this: youcaring.com/c/crowdfunding

@kuba I left a comment on J.M.'s blog asking about what he thinks is best.

good, thanks

@gwr keep us posted

@ChrisK ... that is the plan. :)

@Kuba @gwr @J.M.needshelp. I also think that a more general approach should be taken this time. I read Reddit and browse imgur regularly and have seen many Go Fund Me races with very positive results. In their FAQ, the first point is support for healthcare. However, I'm unsure about the fees and whether JM is able to collect the money from it. On the other hand, it has the plain advantage that we can make the campaign more visible far beyond the scope of the core users who

know him for a long time. After all, he is a longterm contributor to both Math.SE and Mathematica.SE and he has helped many people.

@halirutan my main issue with Go Fund Me is that it needs a lot of paperwork from my bank, and the accompanying bureaucracy. I kind of want to avoid bureaucracy as much as possible, since stuff gets delayed far more than it should.

I'll ask again if things had changed since the last time I asked, however.

@J.M.needshelp. If you have any alternative in mind that works better than I'm sure we can use this instead. Another idea would be to have a person from U.S. helping because for the US there are no campaign fees.

@halirutan @J.M. @halirutan @Kuba I thought that youcaring.com did look good on "social projects" as opposed to project funding. They only have processing charges (e.g. 2.9% for PayPal etc.) but nothing on top while other sites had 4-5% extra charge.

@halirutan I'll look into it.

Thank you, everyone.

When I remember right, last time I was your manager who collected from several people and sent the money. However, for Europe goFundMe is not free as well. So I'm happy with either alternative. As said, it probably would be an advantage if we had a central funding place that we can make public and share. Since you already published something on your blog, I hope this is in your best interest.
