There are unique features of open source product development that are not like Business as Usual, and understanding of which can help many people who want to proprietize their work to recognize faulty assumptions that are likely to stand in the way of them 'making millions.' Unless one is an entrepreneur at heart, one is deluded into thinking they will make it big - becuase bigness typically carries with it challenges and compromises that are not savory. Exposing these misconceptions is likely to attract more people to the open source product development route, with its inherent drive for zero competitive waste.

Some of my main lessons are:

  1. There is a huge difference between vision and ability to execute that vision - and that is the world of enterprise management.
  2. There is a huge difference between a first prototype and a working product.
  3. There is a huge difference between a working product and a working enterprise.
  4. There is a huge difference between a working enterprise and a Distributive Enterprise.
  5. Distributive Enterprise as an economic paradigm can lead to Distributed Market Domination, what was known in the American experiment as Jeffersonian democracy.
