>>Many people/companies make money from this, and >>many others simply get to use and enjoy the software Mitch - thanks for your message. I appreciate your optimism - and it makes me question whether I am too jaded. But my experience in life has taught me that if you have multiple people contributing to a project, and some of those people are making a tremendous amount of money while others are making very little, those that are making less money will not long be satisfied - and they will wish to make as much money as they see their colleagues making. I believe this will happen with the Red Hat Open Source community. You may disagree. But again, perhaps you are more optimistic than I. Thanks, -Eric Wells
