It's intended to be a hurdle, if you want to build a business on other people's work and not contribute back. Be a player that benefits the ecosystem or go away and build the product from scratch if you think you can. > a CD in the post is sufficient Yeah, it would be.

If the contributions are not valuable, the problem will likely solve itself when the company goes bust.
