How many of such good natured individuals focused on one endeavor
constitute a project you'd be likely to approach?

Do you feel resources should be put into finding new and promising
projects prior to 'chicken hawkers' approaching?

How do we lure developers from closing off with "as a service" products
that can be offered free but aren't F/LOSS which seems to be the candy
the 'chicken hawkers' have to offer?
