	Здравствуйте.
"However, neither licensing nor the availability of source code
gives free software its competitive edge. Licensing and source
are merely means toward an end: the participation of many
individuals and groups in the development, testing, quality
assurance and advocacy of software."

About six months ago, I wrote up a piece on funding volunteer free
software projects that is being alluded to here:

  http://mako.cc/writing/funding_volunteers/funding_volunteers.html

In particular, there was some academic work on mixing volunteerism and
commercial work that I cited in that paper. If you can't get access to
the documents or journal articles I cited off list and you really want
to read them, please contact me offlist and I can try to get you
copies.

Regards,
Mako
