For sure. It's definitely not a purely software oppirtunity.
I'm just looking at the situation and seeing something interesting: there are companies that have the money and the will to pay for FOSS projects, and there are FOSS projects that would benefit from the money, but due to their small scale they can't reasonably deal with all the hassle involved in becoming an entity that can take advantage of the mo ey companies are willing to spend. Maybe some kind of third party could centralize that hassle and make it super easy for FOSS projects to get some useful cash. I have no idea how that would be structured or even if the market is there or if the unit economics would make sense.
