Dual-licensing is a well-developed strategy for mixing pure Open Source
licensing with paid licensing producing income, with both sides producing
benefit for the other. It sounds like some of the people commenting haven't
learned about it. It is legally much better structured than the submitted
license, in part because of the use of a contributor license agreement.
There is also the potential for a covenant back to the developer preventing
the product from being taken entirely private.

    Thanks
