> The fervent animosity towards dual free non-commercial/paid commercial licenses in the foss world has always puzzled me. In the end it is source code readable by anyone yeah?
Yes, but I cannot for example use it if I received grant to develop open source application.
Maybe above is overly cautious. Buy I have enough legal uncertainty with dealing how to tax grant income, I do not need more of it.
I would instead appreciate license even more toxic for corporations than GPLv3 - which would not block use by small players.

The problem is that it is usually alternative to free software/open source - not completely secret code.

- svnpenn 4y agoRPL still allows commercial use, so you might as well just use GPL
