"4. I actually think the FOSS vs. licensing cost are somewhat orthogonal issues. I distribute my software under the MIT license, but only to those people who pay me about US $25,000. This is something the FSF encourages, as a way to bring revenue to a project. However, it only works because I'm not trying to establish some sort of "community" but prefer a vendor/customer relationship." Why the MIT license then? Do you figure that people who paid $25k for the software aren't going to go upload it to github for all to see?
