If we were ever to make the whole thing generally available it would
probably have to be with some subcontractor who was providing us with
custom development and support for the product. We'd want them to be
hawking the product elsewhere with the hope that with more companies
paying for the custom development, we'd get more features for our
dollars. What they did with the sources, etc., I doubt we'd care much
about so long as we were getting the enhancements we wanted at a price
we thought was reasonable. The problem is, as I stated in an earlier
post, the nature of the system is so volatile that it doesn't lend
itself well to being a "stand alone commercial product".
