Well, perhaps some of us do...

But my personal interest or my personal agreement as a "member of the
community" isn't the issue. The issue is if this is all kosher by the GPL,
which it pretty clearly is.

Given several cases of beer and an evening to blow, I'm sure we could all as
a group come up with dozens of "better" development models for Gnat. But who
really cares? ACT certainly doesn't have to, and I don't even think I do...
