Does it work for me? Then is a success.

Exactly. Open source projects do not rely on 'sales' to survive. If the project scratches MY itch, it really doesn't matter whether it scratches one other person's itch, or millions of other persons' itches.

It sometimes surprises me how many people have seen and even used my projects.
