Id pass the buck to whomever writes the checks ;-) There are a couple of places I recall where it says something like "when in doubt, send us money". There are a lot of cool open source projects out there - one of my favorites is Joomla. mySQL found a profitablity formula that works for them, and they managed to ride the popularity of open source - I cant argue with their success.
