Software is NOT about making money, it’s about changing the world. The money is a by-product. Keep that straight and everything will be fine. However (by defition) that means you’ll never get any VC money.
Open note to Dave Winer - trust me, David Recordon, Chris Messina and Joseph Smarr - OpenID will be the same after the Facebook design confab next week. That said - I do agree with you that there should be ‘open’ meetings - so I left a comment on your blog which suggests having TWO events - the current planned semi-closed design event (roll up your sleeves and solve some of these conunundrum issues) and a larger (more like a summit) one a week or two later. Kaliya should run that. It shouldn’t be an unconference - ’cause I think there should be very specific things to talk about - but it should be open for the community to attend.

I think timelines are important. Great to see one that will work with Google spreadsheets.
