Sorry, but your case seems a bit thin to me. First, I have not actually heard of people without a PhD having been approved under EB1-OR. Your publication record is rather small (just 3 journal articles) and there is too little evidence of having served as the judge of the work of others. Usually they'd want to see some evidence that you refereed a number of research papers and grants. IMHO, you don't have much of a chance of being approved under EB1-OR.
 
And I decided to follow-up with my lawyer and found out that a PhD is not a must and he is clearly aware of other applicants without a PhD who have managed to get thru via EB1B.
 
I got my green card via EB1-OR. I don't have PhD - MS in CS and 6+ years experience. Permanent (current) position at an ivy-league which may have made a difference though - since the HR here normally apply for only faculty members. I have around 10+ papers/journals and book chapters. Memberships may be important.

Your cover letter should be strong to make a good case. Good luck!
 
The eval period allows you to download patches and get support. After the eval period the software will continue to run just fine.
