Well, yeh the money would have to come from the development done after Chicken was ported to the platform in question. The person who did the port might have some development advantage while others play catch up. It depends on how applicable/successful Chicken could be on these platforms. I recently came across http://www.simkin.co.uk/. It appears to have had some kind of funding/commercial backing. Do others think Chicken might have potential in this area?

Ok it's a reasonable idea, but where's the money in it? I'm in this trap of doing things where I build a lot of infrastructure and don't see money. If someone can tell me how they're getting paid to use Chicken, *that* would cheer me up tremendously.
