I don't consider this to be open source software. Most straightforwardly, because it fails to meet section 6 of the open source definition: http://opensource.

I don't consider this to be open source software. Most straightforwardly, because it fails to meet section 6 of the open source definition: http://opensource.org/osd http://opensource.org/osd And practically, because open source is a model of collaboration, and there's no collaboration here -- django's a collaborative software project, and this is an engineering dead end where you pay (or not) for the code and then it gets thrown away afterwards. It's the wasted effort and duplication that bothers me, not the fact that money is involved.
