> wearing open source's uniform without making open source's sacrifices.
Open source isn't a "sacrifice", for most people at least. Many release under permissive licences because they think there is more chance that people will use their software. They want to be popular and that makes them feel good and might get them a job. People release code under the GPL and if it becomes popular eventually benefit from patches coming back up stream. It's not supposed to be about sacrifice. It's supposed to be about being a good member of a community and sharing your work.
