There are lots of dark alleys and cloaks and daggers, but don't be afraid. I love you, open source, you saved my life.

Well, that depends on what the legal definition of open source is. Let's just say that in RMN's terms that wouldn't fly.
My point remains. Open source saved my life. It's always there when I need it, and it doesn't ask questions or require me to agree to things that are at the very least strange.
The legal definition (well, the colloquial legal definition) is that the source is as available as the binaries are. You could compile it yourself. Open Source does not mean GPL, that it must stay that way, or that you can't make money off it, or that it can't be used in conjunction with close source code (even mixed with it at a source level).
And I actually don't know if that describes RM 20XX. So I could be full of poop on that.
