This is what I''m aiming to propose to my management when I want to
contribute recipes/modules back to the community.  They''ve already
said I''m not allowed to devote company time to providing support for
them, but they have no issue with contributions beyond that.  I''m
thinking I can contribute back under the BSD license, with the
appropriate license file in the module distribution - that lets anyone
else with an interest pick up the module and run with it if they want
to.
