Hi Joshua,
Your answer is very much appreciated.
My hypothesis right now is that highly successful /open source/ projects,
already having profit or not, can usually take care of themselves. As well
as hardly any established software company needs a broker. But examples on
everyone's lips are ve

licensing schemes.
And it is often
"as long as it does not "swallow"
some of the free software code out there."
I have the same fears.
