Which open source model is "traditional"? There are several, for example,
"you can have my source but it's still mine so don't mess with it"
"you can have my source and do anything you want with it"
"you can have my source, but only if you promise to give all yours away"
Yes, I know I'm exaggerating the FSF position. :-)
Now Microsoft weighs in with "Their source crashes so seldom that we're
losing customers, so let's see if we can make their source illegal."
