Of the root article, yes. But it doesn't sound like that's the intent of your license.

You asked:

> But if your license isn't open source, then what good is it for monetizing open source programs?

The OpenFare License is the commercial license that I believe should be used in the dual licensing circumstance described in the article. Thereby helping to monetizing open source programs.

The OpenFare License intends to provide that commercial aspect whilst being equivalent to the MIT License where possible.

Okay. I didn't expect that to be the case, but I'm happy to hear that it is.
