Yes, certainly, but it's never *all* fun, is it ? I mean, do you really get a 
kick out of maintaining the bugs database, for instance ? :-)

And if you think people using your code is fun, then you do care about them, 
don't you ? :-)

What I mean is just that as soon as you're working for others, you're bound 
to deal with some "less fun" stuff from time to time.
