I'd like the Linux community to support
Larry in working out the details for this
"hybrid" model for "open software".

I and many others would like to do something
like what Larry is doing. In particular, it allows
*small* software groups to produce very
high quality software and still pay the
mortgage and send the kids to school.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Let's be pragmatic, except for over-caffinated
college students, the rest of us simply
cannot afford to indulge in "free/open"
software with out a clever way to make
a few bucks to put food on the table.

I'd like to propose a topic for
Eric R. (our resident pundit and deep
thinker):
Software as a Cottage Industry
