Cedric,
as I have said my revenues are very little and definitively not enough for funding efforts of a company. We probably need to find a sponsor (I mean a large company that can sponsor the project) however so far I have not received any offer.


Cheers, Luca

Hi Luca

Most of us are in a similar position wrt. balancing revenue with the ability to code.

I'd like to contribute, as well as complete my ntop probe integration and demo, but getting money in takes priority. Our one advantage is that our labour rates are low due to a favourable exchange rate.

A few days ago you referred a NMS supplier to us (Do you have a current relationship with them?). We are currently in discussion with a different supplier and our goal is to add ntop as a probe to their product. I estimate two weeks worth of work to complete the exercise.

If you have development funds available, it could greatly assist our efforts, as well as assist in us getting the business we previously tendered on. We could come to an agreement on future profit sharing, beyond your current support contracts.

Please let me know what you think.

Regards

Cedric

Dear all,
beside rare exceptions, I'm the only one who develops ntop. This is a major problem for the project as many more people should get involved with its development. I understand that not everybody is able to code stuff, on the other hand I can't image that 99.99% of the ntop users is not able to write code. Many non-code related things are needed (manuals for instance).


Can somebody please help me and contribute to the project. ntop money is very little (donations are very rare), however if you want to have some revenue, please contact me too and let me know.

Thanks, Luca
