The SDC site contains articles and links to articles explaining all 
this. The gist of Fair Source is: the source code is released openly and 
publicly, but commercial use must cut a deal. We believe in this model 
being more fair to authors than open source, and even being more true to 
the open source spirit, than the existing open source licenses. 
Sometimes I step in when I see indication that people are not aware of 
these issues. Sorry if I stepped in too strongly this time.
