 Shareware - Paul's Picks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
For Fluegelman it was "Freeware." Jim Button called it "user supported software" and Bob Wallace was calling it "Shareware." There are reasons why Button and Wallace did not go with Fluegelman's term, but that will be discussed when I talk about each of these "Founding Fathers" as individuals.
Jim Button, on the other hand, was releasing his program under the term "User Supported Software" and adopted "Shareware" later.
Strictly by chance, Jim Button had had a similar idea and had been marketing his new database under the term "user supported software." Andrew Fluegelman got together with Jim Button and established a means of each helping to promote the other.

 Jim Button - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jim Button (born James Knopf—"knopf" meaning "button" in German) is considered by many to be one of the "fathers" of shareware (so named by fellow software veteran Peter Norton).
He released his first program, PC-File (a flat file database), in late 1982 as "user supported software".
As of 2005, of the three founders of shareware, Button is the only one still alive, despite having a near-death experience in 1992, when his heart stopped beating.

Jim had always considered himself to have an overabundance of luck, but on this occasion, he decided that he was suffering from a severe shortage of "mess hall conversation" karma.

 Shareware
Wallace came up with the name that stuck, but many consider the "fathers" of the shareware marketing model to be Jim Button and Andrew Fluegelman.
Button referred to his distribution method as "user supported software," and Fluegelman called his "freeware." Between the three of them, they clearly established shareware as a viable software marketing method.
Open source software and shareware are similar in that they can be obtained and used without monetary cost.
