Hi Pete,
Yeah, you're missing the point, kind of. Everyone who contributes can also use
all contributions by everyone else and when you contribute, you make it more
attractive to others to cntribute too. That's the reward of open-source
software and there is no reason for any additional compensation.
Well-said, that man!

Thanks Mark.
As mentioned, I know nothing of C++ so this isn't going to affect me. But
it doesn't seem unreasonable that someone who is willing to contribute code
into a free product might feel like they should be compensated should that
code be incorporated into a product that costs money. Or perhaps I'm
missing the point of open source software.
