You cannot use Community to make enterprise software. Enterprise software described the entirety of the people willing to drop $2,000+ a year to use Visual Studio.
This won't impact their primary market, especially when you consider that MSDN subscriptions are often considered the primary benefit of using Visual Studio.
- tzs 12y ago> You cannot use Community to make enterprise software. Not quite. You cannot use Community IN an enterprise other than for contributing to open source, academic research, or classroom learning. There's no restriction on using it to MAKE enterprise software.

The application is not an open source project. The agency has 5 employees working on the project and would like to use Visual Studio Community 2013. Since the agency is a contractor developing this application for the Fortune 500 firm, and since the application is not an open source project, the agency cannot use Visual Studio Community 2013 for developing and testing the application.
