@neauoire I think this concept of vertical integration has very much fallen out of favour.

I’ll also say that often language designers are not good at “product”.

So the question becomes around gathering a diverse set of folks with cross-disciplinary skills.

I keep thinking about Cross License Collaboratives as a model here xlcollaborative.com/introducti

@boris I'm not sure I understand how cross license works

> Rather than assigning or licensing their contributions to a centralized organization, contributors license each other.

Is there a pool? or do collaborators split their licensing fee individually between collaborators?

@neauoire for licensing revenue there is a pool.

How this is structured isn’t detailed, just described.

“Cross license collaborative governance rules also require sharing of any proceeds related to licensing. If the collaborative makes its project available under a share-alike or noncommercial licensing, and then chooses to sell an exception for closed or commercial use, they must share the license fee with all contributors.”
