It’s 11:43pm on a Monday night. My 6-week-old son is asleep in my office so my wife can get some uninterrupted rest for the first half of the night. He’s finally asleep now, and I probably should be also after a full day of work. But I’m not done for the day. Even though I’m a software engineer by trade, I’m also a computer programmer by hobby and passion. So I do what I’ve been doing for well over a decade now: I boot up my computer to write some code.
That’s why I like the GPL. I’m fine with people using my software for personal use, or for commercial use if that’s integrated in another open source software.
If a company want to use my software with an unrestrictive opensource license, we’re going to have to discuss license price.
