This won't work because you couldn't get anywhere near enough people to invest the funds needed to buy it off SMSI even if they were willing to sell it for a measly $50,000. Plus you'd need 5 times that amount of additional capital just to START a marketing campaign that has any chance of success. And how much are you going to sell it for when PHP and MySQL are free and they come with thousands of already-trained programmers willing to work for lower rates than WebDNA programmers? No, it's too late for WebDNA already, that's the bottom line -- except in very special circumstances perhaps, and only for a few more years tops. But even those circumstances will no longer exist 10 years from now I'll bet. The only entity that can save it now is Microsoft.
