Forget the business model. Forget the real life issues of actually running
a business. These are REAL hard to get right. That's why 90%+ of business
fail.
The real question in my mind is how do we get good corporate research
into the general community in todays environment. Plan 9's ultimate
value may not be in finished code, but in the spread of good ideas.
