Hi, a small contribution... 1) It shouldn't go the way it goes with Joomla. There you have to buy (the best) extensions. Am I right? 2) There are people making not that much money with TYPO3, and who are poor programmers. They contribute to making TYPO3 a popular system by simply using it for their (small) customers. Good quality should not only be available to those who pay much money. So, TYPO3 must be there for the little customers too. 3) It is understandable that different programmers want to protect their software differently, for several reasons.
Do we agree on that? If so, perhaps there should be a way for contributors to the TER to choose another license. Perhaps from some of the Creative Commons licenses? For the already build extensions that are not maintained, the author can be asked what he/she wants? And if he/she doesn't respond, the TYPO3 organisation can take the appropriate action. Changing the license or keeping it to GPL... whatever. Hope it adds to the discussion.
