I would like any such companies to step forward, because the idea here for 
Bacula is not to make money, but to cover out of pocket costs of development. 
If others can make some money and at the same time help the project, so be 
it. I have no problem with people or organizations around Bacula earning 
their living, but I don't envision Bacula moving toward a MySQL type 
structure.  Nothing is totally out of the question as I am open to 
discussion, but I just cannot see it for Bacula.
