Well altruism usually has some base when measured in producing
and shipping costs. While I greet the effort I doubt it's going
last forever -- code's code but material's material.
I would spend a bit or two on infrastructure funding questions
if it were Red Hat or SuSE but it seems that these folks are
rather after eye-candy, and it's just a different audience most
of the time. I believe the OEM contracts could be the most hot
crossing, not the public articles.
Still hope to be just wrong on "not forever" case. :)
