Do you see potential for smaller open source projects to make a profit? As a student of computer engineering, I am very interested in digital audio and signal processing as well as Free software. However, I fear that a product such as an audio workstation would have a much more difficult time generating profit than an operating system would. I see a particularly large gap in music software for Linux and I would love to try to give back to the OSS community that has been so generous to me. Do you think that there is any way I could devote my career to such a project and still be able to eat and pay rent?
By the way, I love Unity and am very excited for the release of 12.04! Keep up the good work!
