An interesting consulting niche would be to help companies open source software they want to release.
Basically:
- clean up code,
- make sure the infrastructure is sufficient,
- help with marketing and adoption,
- write documentation
- coolsunglasses 13y agoVery few companies want to pay for that, fewer still when in-house and third party devs are often begging to do that work if they'd just let them license the code as OSS.
- VikingCoder 13y agoI see it more likely as getting someone like the Stack Exchange guys agree to open source it, if we pay them enough. A Kickstarter project, for instance.
