| The real challenge continues to be, how can we succeed without closing our
| source? Only a few companies have managed to do this, with almost all of them
| being small fries that most people never heard of. But it is possible to do
| business this way. I would suggest that, eventually, we will see more and
| more companies discover how to develop software without restricting users'
| freedom to use, study, modify, and redistribute the programs. Meanwhile, for
| 2008, You can bet we'll see a lot more businesses learning to respect users'
| freedom.
