In fact, three quarters of the money we make comes from licensing, and only a quarter from support and related services. Given that, it's much more in Sleepycat's interest to have our high-powered developers working on features that we can go sell to lots of customers, rather than projects that we can sell to just one or two. Мне вот интересно, на чём будут зарабатывать компании, которых сейчас кормит двойная лицензия когда FLOSS-продукты станут оч.-оч. распространёнными? Сейчас, по сути они живут за счёт продаж проприетарщиков. -- Is it possible that software is not like anything else, that it is meant to be discarded: that the whole point is to see it as a soap bubble?
