You said "I'm not even going to go into the ethical issues I have with the idea of profiting from an incredible amount of freely provided volunteer effort while refusing to give anything back."

Are you alleging that I've received an incredible amount of help for LinkStructor--my to-be commercial web app, or are you referring to the volunteer effort that built Perl? How many questions does one have to answer before he's no longer considered to be "refusing to give anything back"? If I post scripts and nobody needs them, am I expected to keep trying until people are satisfied? That would go beyond an "effort".
