Its not exactly a big secret what companies want. I know what
they want, most of the people I work with knows what they want,
the whole idea of the company I work for is to try and provide
atleast a part of what some companies want. They want something
that works, and when it doesnt work, they want to know who to
blame. Big players like IBM is willing to take on the roll as the
one to blame, in exchange for compensation of course, and that is
what FreeBSD needs. A big company that is willing to take the
blame if something fails. But as long as we look like a hobby
project no big company will ever be interested in taking on that
role for us.
Like it or not, but being professional is not enough, you have to
look professional too.
