I'm not sure either.  Yet Heri, one of the organizers, told me that it 
all was an initial try, and that everything was possible :-).

Isn't a package is a product? :-)

But I agree that part of the idea of the BlitzWeekend is creating 
projects that could eventually attract investors, and I guess
investors prefer creating new markets than go fight on already 
established ones, and as such, may be attracted by new and un-thought 
revolutionary ideas, which nobody else is going to soon have...
