Yeah this is pretty funny. And I think I can give you an answer.
Let's assume you had a product that you couldn't sell like a product.
Because it has not went through the testing etc of your other products.
Also assume it's really a fancy script that someone else could do if
they really wanted to.
Now you have this "product" that is really services to install and
configure it (2 weeks generally). Would you rather sell it once and have
it duplicated a 100 times or keep it secret, not sell it, and charge for
the services to get you consulting services to increase revenues...

I guess I don't run in the right circles, because I've never been able
to
get anyone to give me CCS Hybrid Profiles (and I know engineers that
work
for Citrix!). I wonder why all the secrecy - if it's so good, then sell
it.
If it's not worth selling, then give it away and don't support it. It's
like
the Sasquatch of software - lots of people talk about it and, every once
in
a while, you hear someone say that they've seen it, but you never
actually
see it yourself. It's the urban legend of software. In fact, I refuse to
believe it exists until I actually see it.
