What incentive do you want us to give?  We don't have any.  And if
someone does it, we will find a place for it.

I think you want us to look more like a MySQL AB or Oracle company where
things are more bundled and blessed.  It isn't going to happen with us
because we aren't a company, don't make money, and don't control anyone.

This reminds me of the MySQL migration guy who didn't want to use a 3rd

with MySQL.
