Also, “I believe it can be self-sustainable if enough people subscribe to the support plans.” Vague, but there is also mention of SLA possibilities.

Optimism isn't so bad.

@danhugo @fabrice @timbray I didn't sound optimistic to you?

Did I assert that you weren´t? (edit: optimistic… or did? grammar is tricky)

The founders of the project are deploying something useful, asking for donations, and hope to offer additional plans from what they have so far.

We´re working on a bunch of open source stuff with a similar mindset, optimism isn´t so bad. They seem to have it, it keeps us going… and it isn´t so easy to come by in some quarters.

@polotek @danhugo @timbray No, you sounded snarky in a "of course they will fail" way.
