And if I look closely at the Drupal project as an Open Source project, the number and quality of people working on core is the only thing that is _really_ important." And how many projects did its influence directly or indirectly fund so that core developers could be core developers, devoting more of their time to Drupal (hint: anyone you and I know making money through working on CivicSpace)? How many extra clients did it turn on to Drupal so that they sought core developers? How many other people have contributed patch reviews and bug fixes as a result? It's the trickle down effect. That's what is also *really* important ;) "(and no I didn't take your post personally, why would I?)" (I didn't think so :)
