Hard to say.  Not-for-profit ventures like open source projects are 
often strapped for labor.  I expect it'll remain that way until the 
"gift economy" expands to include open source housing and open source 
groceries. :)

But I did think it was worth mentioning here because there are always a 
few folks looking to dig into something fun, and that project's scope is 
contained enough to make it a good thing to contribute to occassionally.

And of course for the speakers going to RevCon it can be handy to use 
for making their presentations. :)

And for newcomers who just want to poke around to see how a really 
experienced developer puts together a functional product, this is one of 
the few products that are open source and it's a treasure trove of good 
learning material.

I don't know if making that open source has simplified your life or 
complicated it (OS projects can go either way), but if the community 
isn't yet really glad you made the move I think they will be as they 
play with it more.  Thanks for putting that out there.
