Almost. I think they are also concerned about contributing to an open
source project and then seeing the code they contributed end up in a
commercial product. In other (blunter) words, they are concerned about
Borland misrepresenting the nature of the project (open source vs.
commercial), and having their uncompensated efforts going toward
lining Borland's pockets.

If I'm way wrong on this, someone will correct me, I know. ;)
