I don't have any skin in this discussion, but my understanding is that the issue is more to do with supporting upstream code, rather than money. If Sam had sent his fixes upstream to the Kodi project, I am under the impression that the devs would have been much less irritated generally.

My only irritation (personally) is that every time somebody does a news story about the Raspberry Pi, they always feature Raspbmc and describe it as a media center made by one kid while he was in high school, instead of a port of a project that's 15 years old with contributions from hundreds of individuals. I don't think that's Sam's fault, but it very much irks me that the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal still haven't actually written the name XBMC or Kodi in their respective papers.

Anyway, I'd suggest that we get back to the point of this thread, which is to talk about Vero OSMC support.
