Giants."  -- Isaac Newton

As long as FIC and OpenMoko treat the developers with respect, we win. 
If I contribute code, it is with the hope that OpenMoko-based phones 
will give us more freedom over our means of communication, and not with 
an eye for monetary recompense.

We are traveling a road built by those who came before. It's not quite 
right to start asking for toll.
