I listened to a talk by Ebon today and he has absolutely no qualms with joint licensing. That should be enough for most FOSS developers. Also do not under estimate the costs of translation, documentation, and bug triage. This is where the community is making significant inroads. Developers are only part of a larger whole, I would love to have more involved but they are not the complete picture. -- Ken Foskey OpenOffice.org developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
