So the thing I think you're missing here, is your own agument
about enlightened "self interest".

Yes, Bradley and Conservancy have an agenda. They represent
us (Samba) when that agenda and self interest *align with
ours*. When they don't, nothing happens (remember they only
act on our behalf).

It's just like development - they want one legal thing, you
want another. Only when the two align do you work together.

So far it's worked very well (just like Linux :-).
