The intent of OSD (it seems to me) has always been to describe via a few
easily-grasped practical guidelines the underlying core concept of open
source -- loosely speaking, access to source code with the perpetual
right to freely use, redistribute, or fork the codebase (or create
derivative works based on it) for any purpose whatsoever.

I'm only trying to add to that the requirement that a part of any generated revenue is payed to the authors (if they want). This should be completely orthogonal to the open source requirements, and hence unhurtful of them, but I'm having technical problems. Not unsurmountable I believe, but hard.
