You seem to have not understood what I've said. Whatever good will you may extend, the attitude betrays the complacency of an alms-giver. I merely wish to point out how FOSS can be manipulated by such an attitude to provide a fig leaf -- in "a few years time" -- for the rent-seeking behavior I'd hope you condemn.
Let me also apologize for my manner. I'm inept at expressing what I think is important without alienating those that might be most receptive to it. Truly, I wish I could have said what I needed more gracefully. I didn't mean to give offense.
