+Several of these projects -- albeit initially appearing most promising

+A few random examples for interesting projects with no visible release
+for longer than five years are:
+ \printurl{http://sourceforge.net/projects/freepm/}{FreePM},
+ \printurl{http://www.txoutcome.org/}{OIO},
+ \printurl{http://sourceforge.net/projects/odontolinux/}{OdontoLinux!}
+ which was even included in Debian formerly.
+Those failed to follow two basic principles of Free Software: care for a solid user base
 and recruit qualified developers from it. This is a difficult task that becomes even more difficult with 
 increasing specialisation of software.
