Hi Peter,
At a quick glance, this Greenlight system appears to me a revenue-splitting
funding mechanism for game makers - probably meant for closed/non-free

That's all fine for indie game makers, but I wouldn't know a benefit for
Blender to be there. I
I don't know how to put the right words. I hope it is understandable.
Steam not only sell Software and Games, they have also free Games and
Software like GameMaker (Not open source but still free).
