Just to clarify - yes, we do relicense OpenNMS as a way to make money, but every bit we write is also available under the GPLv3.

So the code that Juniper licensed under a proprietary license is still available under the GPL. Also, the code they pay us to develop is added to the product (and all of our work is done in branches in our very public git repository).

It's not the same thing as these fauxpen source companies - not the same at all.
