gmipay v1.2 released, with subscription support

[Simon Volpert]

Good time of day, fellow spacemen.

Version 1.2 of gmipay has been released.

gmipay is a Gemini payment processing proxy CGI script. It allows you to sell your content (or buy others') and have it served transparently and with no friction.

Changes since the previous announcement:

* Added a versioning scheme to differentiate between releases;
* gmipay can now be configured to revoke access after a predefined period of time (default: stay unlocked forever);
* gmipay can now be configured to unlock everything it has with a single payment;
* Code quality, refactoring and whatnot;
* The README was updated to include a "motivation" section, which was originally omitted, because the motivation seemed self-evident;
* Sending more than the quoted amount when the unlock time is set to something other than "forever" will cause the appropriate number of subscription periods be credited.

You can try out the live demo to give yourself an idea of what the payment process looks like:

Any payments made to this demo (excluding transaction fees and dust) will be refunded to you within 48 hours (processed manually).

Comments, observations and suggestions are welcome.

Peace.
