    You can have a license that doesn’t strictly meet the OSS definition (for example by not allowing commercial usage), but still gives a plenty of rights.

      The OSS definition is a minimum of decent rights. Any license that takes away from those basic rights will make a person think twice about contributing.

      These companies are asking for unpaid, volunteer work. Why would you offer such work if you don’t receive something decent in return?
