Nobody's going to pay you for something of doubtful value--it's up
to you to
prove the value of the code first. You must go to the community, the
community will not come to you.
Not true, people pay for things of doubtful value all the time! I just
need a better sales team. =)
Seriously, if I had expectations of talking someone into fronting
money, do you think I'd use words like "insufficiently documented" and
"byzantine"? I was just trying to emphasize what I thought was an
obvious point: I can't afford the time to open source my code right
now, but if someone were to make it worth my while, that'd be a
different story. I may as well have said "if I win the lottery". It
*could* happen, but I'm not holding my breath (or buying lottery
tickets).
