Sure thing, I am suffocating in all the money sent to me from LyX
users, and you are right to scald me for all the greed I have been
subjecting you to.

I am currently living off savings and working on TeX stuff so that I
may eventually be able to continue working on it and just sustain
myself (more would be too optimistic).  Instead of just looking now
for a well-paying job, for which I have offers.  There is no sane
reason, except that I like working on TeX better than on automotive
driver assistence systems.

So you work on LyX for fun for fun.  Your future does not depend on
the future of LyX.  I work on TeX for fun for earnest.  If you think
that this entitles you to call my motivation for working with you on
LyX greed, there is little that I can say in reply.

Shrug.
