I really think that projects like the ones in CGRAN have great value. The key point in my option is to implement some widely used standards _using_ the gnuradio framework. As examples I'd say TV broadcast standards like DVB, ISDB-Tb, radio standards like DAB, DRM, ..., this will greatly improve Gnuradio adoption and use, by universities, hobbists and companies.
I don't think money is the only issue involved, but of course it would help. An university involvement approach like the VT one is also very interesting.
