Cool; Boost is an 18 million dollar codebase.
That's using their default Avg. Salary of $55,000/year. That's a joke, at least here in US. Boost contributers are often highly experienced world-class developers who would bring a great deal more than that on the open market. Furthermore, overhead costs usually add something close to 100% to cover benefits, office space, managers, etc. I'd use a figure of at least $200,000/yr. That would bring the value to $68,000,000:-) --Beman
