The definition of 'professional' is only meaningful in a system where that label is attached by an outside entity, by the gatekeepers. Once the public becomes the gatekeeper, they'll sort what is 'professional' from what isn't professional. A true democracy of choice, not a limited and sanctioned choice of what 'they' give us. I stand by my earlier statements of creators creating just because they 'have to'.
