That's why we aren't swimming in a sea of open source projects: There are plenty of people who might like to use it...as long as somebody else writes it AND maintains it. As for committing serious time to something open source....well, that's a tougher sell. I use some open source stuff, to which I contribute financially, but I couldn't afford to contribute any meaningful amount of time.
