Getting a database off the ground as a sustainable business is incredibly hard work. As someone who works on similar problems I have massive amounts of respect for people who try to build a database related business knowing the huge odds they are against.

That's kind of a kick in the balls for anyone who was trying to get involved in their development process. Or, hell, anyone who was trying to debug an issue they were having.
