Let's do it just "Because We Can" and because it is an interesting
project.  If we start thinking about markets and such, we run the
risk of outguessing ourselves.

If we can develop something that will be useful and productive (which
many here believe possible) then the rest will follow.  Since if
it is useful to us, it will be useful to others...
