It's not the point. At least with the BSDL. People who use the BSDL just want people to USE their code. They don't care how. They have no animosity towards private, commercial use of it. NetAPP has supported bsd camps in many ways over the years. Your comment is ignorant. Either way they are not required to. By using BSD code the level of quality of their product is raised. It's in their interest to keep their diff set against head as small as possible. Something a few vendors have learned the hard way. So it makes no sense for them to horde all their changes and code. It just makes their life a lot harder when updating their code base from say FreeBSD.
