Did I hear that Firefox is getting funded to have google prominently 
displayed?

$15M

Google is beyond smart and funded by the original silicon money.

I doubt that they will make money off this contest but maybe good will 
and a championship of open-source. Plus one of the good ideas may get 
picked up by the same silicon money ( I mean the likes of KPC ) as 
open-source more than anything is filled with a great petri dishes.

By the way, is OSCOM invited to OSCON this year?
