As far as I can tell there isn't a standard name for this sort of thing (open source for marketing, proprietary poison pill) - every time someone tries it, they come up with a new term to try to cover for what they're doing. Then everyone realises perfectly well what they're doing and calls it "proprietary" or "a trap." So "proprietary with open-source wrapper" or "trap" is just fine. - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
