Free, and operated

Where the open core stops.

The line is operational, not functional. Everything that keeps working on its own is open core; what needs credentials, a certificate or a channel somebody keeps running is the hosted edition.

NG-VAT-RETURNdeclaration

Free, for everComputed from the ledger, frozen box by box, filed by hand on the administration’s portal, and what it owes is carried to 2210. The deposit number and the administration’s own words come back into your own database.

OperatedTransmission: the credentials, the certificate and a channel somebody keeps running. The return stays yours.
