What do you think about hiring a developer to work exclusively and full time on Pharo?

I'm the first one in the list. Who else?
I would be in. But I doubt that there would be enough people who would do this. There are many things that one would normally think would be logical to do. E.g, you have a company that uses a plattform for all your bussiness. Wouldn't you invest into it to secure your future? The Answer of all companies in the Squeak community the last 10 years was: "No". Or, you are an employee at such a company. Wouldn't you want to invest a bit of time and energy into the Plattform to make sure that, if the compay lays you off, you can find other employment in waht you did the last X years? The answer of all these Employees and Consultants in the Squeak Community was: "No, I am not payed for that". Sometimes I think there is something I fundamentally don't understand... Marcus
