    Reading their solutions is interesting; wanted to call out the following because it plays nice if you don’t agree with their whole prescription:

    Don’t dilute the Open Source brand. Post-Open will never call itself Open Source, because it has different rules. The Post Open license actually enforces that.

      I think it could be a great solution. I’ve never considered it before. That said there’s one sticking point for me:

      Apportion payment to developers based on software use by paid users and the size of their contribution to that software.

      That^ . That needs a lot more detail. If they provide solid details – details that most can agree on – then I will actually be on board with the solution.

        Yeah, translating “size of their contribution” to a dollar amount is going to be inherently political. If they’re leaving it open ended to let projects figure it out then that could go poorly…
