Description

I'm interested in using the [Lsos](https://lsos.org) to set a fee of $5/month while everything stays free for:
- Individuals
- Small companies (<10 developers)
- Small projects (<3 active authors)
- Nonprofits of any size

So you only pay if you are a larger company using Wildcard for larger projects.

The code stays MIT licensed and thus open and collaborative. So nothings changes except that larger companies pay $5/month.

Only larger projects need an activation key. This means that most of you don't need an activation key and the Lsos doesn't make any difference.

This would enable me to work more on Wildcard; couple of things I'd love to work on:
1. Wildcard sessions, for simple authentication #59.
2. Wildcard callbacks, for simple real-time communication #61.
3. [Experimental] A new query language, for simple decoupled frontend-backend dev #60.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Read the proposal alongside issues #59, #60, and #61, then identify how Wildcard currently handles licensing or activation; the work is complete only when the paid-large-company behavior and free-use exceptions are defined and implemented.
