Money, attracts money... which does not make money 'a good thing'... Money simply makes it easier to reach 'market', because good commercials and broadcasttime cost money: about 30% of the investment, to be exact.... One thing is for sure:the foundation needs as much money as it can get, not meaning that the 'wrong people for the job' should be concerned about it. As part of the strategies, money realy *has* to be involved. I seriously do think someone with a real understanding of money should be approached when the smoke has cleared, and all necessary institutional talk has been spoken, and the goals have been set.
I can see that working ... it would make someone's reputation creating a business model for FLOSS which makes money, and that should be good incentive, apart form the pro-bono-publicum aspect. All we need is someone with a real understanding of money who's prepared to invest some of their time and expertise into creating something new for their and our benefit. Anyone know (or know of) someone like that? David -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
