        But what are the odds of that happening? And even if they did that, 
they would have to give you full copyright credit, so why would anyone pay for

        Now you're getting the spirit of open source!

        I get a rush every time someone contributes something cool back to 
Dabo. It's usually something we never anticipated, or something we didn't 
understand well enough to do correctly, but it's always great to have people 
building off of your project.
