Thanks for sharing the info. Our resident blogger realizes there's a difference between (A) positive net income and (B) positive cash flow. Sounds like Alfresco definitely has positive cash flow. Fantastic to hear, especially as channel partners attempt to determine who's for real in the open source space.
