   Well, I knew already that you believe this. But can you be more
   specific ? How will the chicken get into the programmers' pots ?

I get chicken in my pot, and it's put there by people who
  1) buy manuals from the FSF,
  2) buy tapes from the FSF,
  3) donate money to the FSF, and
  4) pay for consulting work.

It's also possible to sell contracts for support (though that might
fall under (4) above), but I don't do it.
