19. What’s Important in a Model?
• Generate low-friction viral adoption
– Free use for early projects
– No legal & operational red tape
• Support healthy vendors
– Limit unfettered competition from services companies that don’t drive the
product. (And may be foreign, undesired.)
– For those who can pay, provide good reason to pay
• Encourage speculative vendor investment
– Build product the broad market needs
– Invest in features, accessibility, usability, quality
• Retain IP control
– No forced copyleft of customer code
– Encourage some mechanism to ensure code provenance
• Drive efficiency and low cost
– Encourage single code base and stable team
– Stop the “free puppy” syndrome; no local branches
