Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Wow. Openforce shutting down, Ben leaving. How is open source/OACS treating folks trying to earn a living with it?

Several small companies appear to be doing fine.  I'd say a higher percentage of folks working on OpenACS are paid at least some money to do so than is true for your average Open Source project of our size.

Times are extremely tough here in the US, as I'm sure you know.  I know a couple of kids who just got their MS in Computer Science and can't even get interviews locally, while two-three years ago they would've had a healthy job offer before graduating.
