> 1. Package early and often.

Unless you don't feel your codebase is ready for users that don't know
their way around gdb and a C++ compiler.

> 2. Test your program on different distros.

Unless your only hope of making money is selling prebuilt h/w with
your own custom kernel/user-space config and with you installing the
s/w, and you intend to leave it to others to make sure it all works
with various distros.

> 3. Use stable libraries.

Unless there only ones that do what you need are at 0.2.3.

> 4. Keep your documentation up-to-date.

Unless the codebase is changing more rapidly than you can type.

> 5. Watch non-programmers try to use it.

No argument there.
