I am not sure what Howard earns a year. But I guess if you divide that
amount by 100$ (the amount clojure asks for per developer) you come up with a
rather large number.
And how many dedicated tapestry shops are out there that will contribute more?

Now we've hit a problem which I can't give a good solution: measuring how many people and how many companies are using Tapestry. Or any other software tool. Any ideas? :)

I didn't know about the Closure funding. It seems a good approach. It could even help us to know how many people use Tapestry, at least the ones who don't bother donating a small amount to a project that improves Web app writing productivity. I would love to work part- of full-time developing Tapestry itself. It makes me sad to have contributed so little to Tapestry until now.

Maybe technical supporters was the wrong term. Say developers.

I would say users. Developers may sound like committers (the people who not only use, but also develop the framework itself).

I just wanted to make the point
that a technical framework is probably rarely supported from the
busines side but rather by enthusiastic developers.

I agree with you. On the other hand, having enthusiastic users is a very good thing.
Point taken and thanks for the explanations. :)
