On the other hand, Geoff, if left to the engineers products might
never ship until they are "perfect."
As always, some balance needs to be attained. As much as people love
to run down marketing and sales, without them there would be no jobs
in any commercial enterprise...and without paying gigs, the open
source people would also be severely limited in what they can do.
