I can't resist dropping in and mentionning the model of AdaControl:
A company (in this case Eurocontrol) pays for the initial development,
and releases the software as free software. Then other companies pay for
improvements. In the end, every interested company paid for only a
fraction of the whole development cost, and everybody benefits of the
whole product.
See my paper in the December 2005 issue of the Ada User Journal for details.
