[My $0.02]
    With respect to Lawyers, Licenses, Management, etc.  ... One Word:

Capitalism.

    Don't count on the Intellects, Wizards, whatever, to drive the market.
Pardon me if I seem cynical, but profit sustains all business. However, I still
would love to see an incarnation of Plan9 (that 20 years after the first Plan9
Beta) with the Popularity and Effectiveness that Unix (and associated flavors)
enjoys now.

[Note: I strongly support the concept of Capitalism, but not Machiavellian
(sp?) methods. Disclaimer: I am neither an Economic or Political Science
Major.]

  Once a proud programmer of Apple II computers, he now spends his days
     and nights in cheap dives fraternizing with exotic dancers.
