David & I are going to be full employees of Aurora. Most of my contract with
them is run-of-the-mill stuff, with the exception of a few not so
r-o-t-m clauses about code ownership & licensing of my work to ensure
that Midgard remains [L]GPL. I'll be doing my work from home, with a
trip to Paris every now and then. I'm not complaining :)
Alexander has a part-time arrangement with Aurora, on similar terms.
Ron has a contracting agreement with Aurora which is for a limited
time, with specific goals.

If you allow the employees to spend a certain ratio of their workday
on Midgard, that would be a great way to sponsor development, if
that's what you were referring to, Anatol.

Asia is a Big Whopping Place. I can't imagine doing a tour that
crosses all of it (not without taking a sabattical year anyway :)
Where you at? I haven't been to Asia much.
