Don't forget dedication of resources and the almighty $$$. If you have
programmers fixing "bugs", they are not writing new revisions or
creating new features. Its difficult to make money off of fixing
problems in existing code, unless of course you are arrogant enough to
charge for access to the patches. ;)
