I would imagine profiting from experimental aircraft is forbidden mostly for safetly concerns, since you probably wouldn't want someone making a fleet of aircraft out of their garage and routinely selling flights with them. Certainly that aspect doesn't apply to drones tho, since there's no inherint safety risk that I can see.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm the other co-founder of Crowdlink. We see our service as more of a complement to Gittip, where the monetary component is more of a way to show the developer you would really like to see a feature and give a small tip, instead of trying to live off of it. I know if I was dragging my feet to fix an annoying bug and a couple people put up a dollar each I would feel motivated because I knew that people genuinely valued the work.

I'm using my nexus 4 to tether my laptop almost daily with no issues in Seattle.

I think this is a cool idea, but it's still missing some required features to make it what it could be.

* Default arguments that accept a start/stop/restart. This is a really standard paradigm for daemons and would be great in a convenient form like this.

* Ability to load config information from an ini file. For instance, while developing a daemon I want to put it's pid files in a different directory then production, since prod values usually can only be written by root. Ini files are fairly standard, although accepting yaml and other config types would be even better.

* Auto-restart. While a little more advanced this is always useful when developing, although a simple tool like Guard would work instead.

Just food for thought. It's still quite useful, but only marginally so over using daemon directly.
