The open source zealots have been like this for years. 5 or 6 years ago, I forked a project and started charging for it. I was completely within my rights to do so as I followed the license (GNU) specifically and also gave out the full source code.
This didn't stop the death threats, taunts, and aggression I got from the general community. This and things like the recent word press theme debacle have put a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to open source.
