Basically, you are consulting for the company to solve an issue, and the open source is an enabler.
And $240k/year is what they pay an individual contributor. You are basically being paid for your time and expertise and not really for your product.
- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoWe do not sell support and consultancy. Source code is freely available. We sell ready-to-run binaries, almost entirely to individual end users (desktop application).

- kiba 3y agoThanks for pointing it out. I clicked on his profile but somehow missed the details of the project he's making a living off.
- pgeorgi 3y agoOne look at OP's account would give you "ardour" as a hint to what product this might be. 5 minutes of scanning ardour's webpage would tell you that the "O'Rly? school of Open Source business" blueprint doesn't apply here.
