Isn't this a bit of a cyclical argument: developers don't work because
they are not paid a salary, the end-user base shrinks, BigCo doesn't
want to pay for someone to put extra work in getting fBSD to do
something that it can get elsewhere (eg Linux), fewer still developers
work on fBSD, end-user base shrinks, BigCo is even more reluctant,
even fewer....
