I think so, too - as toad said, we must not grow too dependent, and we
must ensure that what we do actually helps our community.

Why that? I think licensing under the GPL (2 or later) should be
enough.

According to the discussions I had now, funders normally want to see
the project succeed: We define a goal to achieve with the money, and
if a funder is interested we get money. Then we better achieve that
goal, if we want to get further funding: Our success with the funders
money rubs off onto the funder (or at least the funding agent who
spots promising projects to fund).

Best wishes,
