There's room for both open source and proprietary software. My preference is for well maintained software to which I can easily make local changes. If I have to pay a reasonable license fee and can only provide my changes to people who are licensed, that's fine.

Why would I hypothetically write a 3270 emulator if it's not important enough to pay for? Why are computer people so loathe to financially reward computer people? We're not talking 1% territory here. Tom Brennan's Vista -- my preferred emulator but not an option for the Mac -- costs $30 for a single user.
