Facinating article found in slashdot:

Talks about how the Helix Gnome folks plan to make money. I've had many
a chat with Christian on how you can do this, it seems like the Gnome
folks have really pinoneered the way for hundreds of entrepeneaurs. Very
interesting...

As it happens, I've entered a competition with Software Engineering
Australia (WA) to write a business plan. I'm basing my business model on
an open source platform - http://www.worldforge.org . I'll let you know
how things turn out.
