I love this one, obviously :)

If your goal is *first* to improve the world of search and make a  
difference in the world, and only secondary to make a living doing  
it, then I'm not sure how much more powerful of a move you could make  
towards that than by open sourcing and leading a new project around  
what you've done.

Whereas, if your primary motive is to profit from it, and you think  
open source might help in some fashion, you'll probably find it  
frustrating and misleading.

If you decide to OS it just sign up on the wiki and we'll help get  
any project hosting and shared dev/test environments set up and help  
improve/promote it.
