It might also be a good idea to change the wording to non-free or proprietary instead of commercial. >>From Please don't use ``commercial'' as a synonym for ``non-free''. That confuses two entirely different issues. A program is commercial if it is developed as a business activity. A commercial program can be free or non-free, depending on its license. Likewise, a program developed by a school or an individual can be free or non-free, depending on its license. The two questions, what sort of entity developed the program and what freedom its users have, are independent. Henrik -- Look! A ladder! Maybe it leads to heaven, or a sandwich!
