    I don’t think we need post open.

    Rather, ditch MIT/BSD for GPL (with no LGPL bandaids) and enforce-

    NO WARRANTY

        Switching to a proprietary license doesn’t “fund open source” it funds proprietary software

        Which, fine, if your business model is incompatible with an open source license then sure. But don’t present it as something it isn’t

        Edit: You can dual license under a strong copyleft (strong enough to scare moochers away) and a proprietary license (fauxpen or traditional).
