I am not suggesting you pay any developers, just making a point that it
would be nice and eventually commercial companies will hire Debian
Developers, as VA did with a few already.

My main point, is that other projects (commercail or free) outside of
Debian should not feel like they cannot be right smack in the middle of
things.  I think it makes more sense for Debian and other projects working
to advance Debian to work as one unit, and not have 'outside' groups.

Debian Developers can learn a lot about what is needed to make Debian more
commercailly viable, and Debian Developers can offer a lot of insight to
this development model. which many don't understand.
