Possibly we should change mailing list, but could you explain more? I agree that there can be good reasons to avoid open core projects: the open core part might not be adequately maintained, it might be prohibitively hard to reimplement non-open core features, etc. But none of these are reasons why open core projects are not DFSG-free. -- Sean Whitton
