True, but I don't know that I would declare a license "non-open" 
because of a restriction against commercial reuse -- which is what 
the OGF does on its open licenses summary page.

The FSF does the same thing here for software licenses:

I guess I'm just fishing for a philosophical explanation about why 
"for non-commercial use only" is a deal killer to open source.
