In my experience, you don't make money by selling support unless you are a large company selling support for a large project or a wide array of projects. The people that will use your library will mostly be developers and not end-users, after all. To make money from things you develop, I think you need to take your library and either build an application that has wide appeal and sell that, or sell yourself as a custom developer that can build the application the customer needs, using the tools you are comfortable with. You can then build in the cost of developing your library that you will reuse for the custom applications. -- pkm ~ http://paulmcnett.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
