I'm only trying to add to that the requirement that a part of any 
generated revenue is payed to the authors (if they want). This should be 
completely orthogonal to the open source requirements, and hence 
unhurtful of them, but I'm having technical problems. Not unsurmountable 
I believe, but hard.
