This isn't noticeably happening so far. Debian has a small cashflow through donations, and it goes towards things like running booths at trade shows and the odd bit of hardware. Day-to-day expenses and the few developers lucky enough to get paid for what they do happen through the goodwill of sponsors. From where I'm sitting, this goodwill seems only to be increasing. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
